TetherGuard Thread Mount Support
The TetherGuard Thread Mount Support secures and stabilises cables using a magnetic breakaway quick-release system. It mounts to any device with a 1/4"-20 female thread. The unit prevents cable strain and protects ports from damage during shooting sessions.
Upgrade from loose cable runs
This accessory replaces unsecured cable routing that stresses ports and risks accidental disconnection. The magnetic breakaway releases under sudden tension, saving both cable and port from damage. The jump is worth it whenever a tethered setup moves frequently or runs through busy environments.
1/4"-20 thread mounting headroom
The mount accepts any standard 1/4"-20 female threaded cage, bracket, clamp or adapter. It comfortably handles typical tethered photography and video workflows where cables pull at varying angles. It runs out when the mounting surface lacks a 1/4"-20 thread or when a fixed, non-breakaway lock is required.

Questions about this item
What thread size does the TetherGuard TG080 Thread Mount Support require on my cage or bracket?

How do I attach the cable to the TetherGuard TG080, and what step do people miss?
Slide the cable into the magnetic breakaway quick-release system until it locks; the step users miss is confirming the magnetic connection is fully seated before applying tension.
