3301 Studio Adapter — Thread Conversion

The Manfrotto 3301 converts a 5/8" unthreaded tip to a 3/8" thread, letting photographers connect lighting and studio gear with different mounting standards. It is built for reliable, wobble-free positioning in professional and hobbyist setups.

Who benefits and who should look elsewhere

Photographers and videographers who need to mount 3/8" threaded accessories onto a 5/8" stud will find this adapter essential. It is not for anyone requiring a 1/4" thread, a different thread pitch, or a step-up from 3/8" to 5/8".

Deciding specification — 5/8" unthreaded tip

This single conversion defines the adapter's purpose: it accepts a 5/8" unthreaded stud and presents a 3/8" male thread. If your equipment matches that exact pairing, the 3301 fits; otherwise a different adapter is required.
