Manfrotto 175 Clip Clamp Studio

The Manfrotto 175 is a steel clip clamp designed for photographers and videographers who need to secure lighting fixtures or accessories to bars and flat surfaces. It attaches via a 5/8" socket and 5/8" male stud, providing a reliable mounting point for studio equipment. This accessory replaces the Manfrotto 2936 model.

Build integration and mounting freedom

The clamp grips objects up to 1.5" thick, allowing it to fit onto a variety of pipes, rails, or table edges without permanent installation. Its steel construction delivers a firm hold that keeps mounted gear stable during shoots. The dual 5/8" connections let you attach lighting heads, arms, or other grip hardware directly, freeing up floor space that stands would otherwise occupy.

Sustained hold under load

Steel construction resists deformation when supporting continuous weight from lighting fixtures or modifiers over long sessions. The clamp mechanism maintains consistent pressure without slipping, ensuring attached equipment stays positioned throughout extended studio or location work. It is not suited for loads exceeding the mechanical limits of the 5/8" stud interface or for mounting to surfaces thicker than the specified maximum.

Questions about this item

How wide a bar or flat surface can the clamp jaws grip?

The jaws accept bars or flat surfaces up to 1.5 inches wide.

Does the steel body or the mounting hardware get hot during long studio sessions?

The steel construction stays at ambient temperature; no heat is generated by the clamp itself.

Which lighting fixtures or arms can I mount directly onto the 5/8" stud?

Any accessory with a 5/8" socket — such as light heads, boom arms or flags — threads straight onto the male stud.
