The FPS CT40-4 is a 40-inch stainless-steel C-stand kit whose base comes off the column, so it packs into two shorter pieces for the car or the grip cart. Set up, it holds flags, nets and small lights from 155 to 330 cm (5.1 to 10.8 ft). The kit includes an extension grip arm and two 2.5-inch grip heads.

FAQ

What is the difference between the CT40-4 and the CTA40-4?

Both are 40-inch stainless-steel kits with the same grip arm and two grip heads. The CT40-4's base comes off for packing. The CTA40-4 has a sliding leg that levels the stand on stairs and uneven ground. Choose by how you carry it and where you set it up.

How much can it hold?

10 kg (22 lb) on top of the stand. Weight at the end of the grip arm puts more strain on the stand, so keep the arm short and put a sandbag on the base when you extend it.

Is a sandbag included?

No. The kit is the stand, one grip arm and two grip heads.
