EXTENSIONS

Handlebars are typically designed for single operator use, by combining our Handlebar Extensions, you are now able to provide a safe and effective means for multiple operators to handle or manoeuvre the camera gimbal around obstacles and provide easy accessible rigging points for unusual configurations. 

Safety Warning: These Rigging cubes are NOT designed to have an axial load applied to them, they are only designed to have a force applied perpendicular to the rigging cubes axis.

ie. Do not apply a resulting force that pulls the Rigging Cubes out of the ends of the handlebars.

FEATURES

100, 200, 300 mm Extensions

T E N S I O N S

100mm, 200mm and 300mm Extension Handles are available to suit your needs. The handles are machined from 30mm diameter aluminium bar with a course diamond knurling to allow for effective handling.

Also incorporated into the handles are removable engineering plastic end guards to cater for various rigging setups. These are provided to improve handling of the extensions and to provide a more resilient material to protect against any drops the Handlebar Extensions might sustain whilst in use.

Our rigging cube is equipped with 4 M10 x 1.5mm threaded holes which are designed for both our handlebar extensions and the typical fixing used on many standardised clamps or eye bolts. To provide some additional versatility, we have also incorporated a single 3/8" UNC threaded hole which can be orientated in either an upward or downward direction for any accessories with an imperial fixing.

Ejection

E J E C T I O N

Springs incorporated into the Rigging Cubes, allow the cubes and anything else that is attached to them to be rapidly and effortlessly ejected during a take by depressing the handlebar triggers.

 

These springs are not designed to propel the handlebar extensions with force but rather just assisting with removal of these accessories. Should you however wish to have a gentler approach when attaching or removing the Extensions Handlebars, these springs can be easily removed.

Support Rig

SUPPORT RIG

Incorporated within the design of the Handlebar Extensions is a groove to accommodate the use of our support hooks. This would allow an additional way to quickly uncouple the Handlebars from your support rig during a shot.
