SmallRig 3736 Air-Cushioned Stand

The SmallRig 3736 is an air-cushioned aluminum light stand built for studio and location work. It supports cameras, DSLRs, LED video lights, ring lights, reflectors and softboxes up to 8kg. The air cushion design prevents sudden drops and finger pinch during height adjustment. It suits photographers and videographers needing reliable overhead positioning.

Build integration: 1/4" thread and 1.2m footprint

A stainless steel 1/4" thread adapter mounts directly to lighting heads, softboxes or reflectors without extra hardware. The flip-lock legs extend to a 1.2m spread for a stable base on uneven floors. All connection parts are metal and the iron support bar measures 2.66mm thick by 15mm wide. The stand collapses to 940mm for transport.

Sustained load behaviour: 8kg to 280cm

The stand holds its full 8kg capacity at the maximum 280cm height without creep. Air cushioning damps the descent when unlocking a loaded column, protecting gear during repeated height changes. Metal flip locks maintain clamping force over long sessions. The aluminum construction resists flex when a heavy softbox is cantilevered.
