60 mm Flat Base Adapter
The Manfrotto Xchange adapter connects an MVH500XAH fluid head to tripods or accessories that accept a 60 mm flat base. It is built for photographers and videographers who need a secure, anti-rotation mount for professional camera supports.
Thermals noise and power draw
This passive metal adapter generates no heat, produces no noise and draws no power during use. It adds negligible mass to the support system and does not affect the thermal or acoustic profile of the shooting rig.
Aluminium construction and grub-screw lock
The high-grade aluminium body resists wear from repeated mounting cycles on location or in the studio. Grub-screw compatibility locks the head firmly in place, preventing unwanted rotation during pan or tilt movements. Quick attachment and removal lets operators swap supports between shots without tools. Not suited for heads or bases that use a different diameter or mounting pattern.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 60 mm flat base adapter onto the 500X head and what step is often missed?
Thread the adapter onto the 500X head's 60 mm flat base, then tighten the grub screws on the tripod or support to lock anti-rotation; the missed step is forgetting those grub screws.
What maintenance or replacement will this aluminum adapter need over time?
The aluminum construction resists corrosion; periodically check and re-tighten the grub screws on the support, and clean threads if grit accumulates.
What limit appears first when the adapter is used continuously on heavy rigs?
The 60 mm interface and grub-screw locking are the limiting factors; sustained heavy loads can loosen the screws, so re-check tightness during long shoots.
