Secure mounting for heavy rigs
The Tilta Hydra Electronic Suction Cup uses a 6-inch composite silicone pad and aluminium-alloy body to hold cameras and accessories weighing up to 106 lbs. Integrated pressure sensors sample vacuum levels 1000 times per second and trigger an internal pump whenever suction drops, maintaining attachment without user intervention. Dual 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 threads with locating pins fit most professional rigging hardware.
Quick attachment with automatic recovery
Full vacuum is reached in as little as 2 seconds, and the motor runs below 60 dB so it stays unobtrusive on set. The system also compensates automatically for high-altitude pressure changes, reducing the chance of unexpected release. A separate wireless monitor is required to view the real-time pressure readout; without it you lose visual confirmation of the suction status.
Suited for stationary high-load setups
This cup targets cinematographers mounting heavy cinema cameras or large accessory arrays to smooth, non-porous surfaces such as vehicle bodywork or studio windows. Operators who need a completely cable-free, battery-independent solution or who regularly mount to textured, curved or porous materials should evaluate alternative rigging methods.

Questions about this item
How can I verify the suction cup is holding securely after mounting it?
The integrated air-pressure monitoring system samples pressure 1000 times per second and displays real-time status on the wireless monitor; if pressure drops, the internal motor automatically restores suction to prevent detachment.
What mounting hardware is included and what must I purchase separately?
The cup provides 3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20 threads with locating pins for direct rig attachment; the wireless monitor that shows pressure data is not included and must be bought separately.
Which version should I choose if I need the higher 106 lb load rating?
This 6" model supports up to 106 lbs (48.1 kg) — roughly 100 % more suction force than the 4.5" version — making it the appropriate choice for heavier camera rigs.
