HSU Aluminium 1/4"-20 Tripod Adapter 1 pack 📷

This aluminium adapter converts a standard 1/4"-20 camera thread into a GoPro-style mount, making it easier to use action camera accessories with devices such as compact cameras, Insta360 units and small rigs. It is handy for attaching an Insta360 X4, Osmo Pocket or other cameras with a 1/4" thread to tripods, mounts and grips designed for GoPro-style fittings, while keeping the connection stable during recording.

Key Points

The adapter is machined from aluminium alloy and includes a rubber pad that protects the camera base and helps reduce slipping. A standard 1/4"-20 UNC screw fits the threaded socket found on many compact cameras and action cameras, giving broader accessory compatibility. The product includes a locking ring that lets you rotate and secure the camera at the desired angle for filming or photography. Consider that, according to the manufacturer, this is a lightweight, single-piece accessory supplied as a one-pack in blue.

Why This May Interest You

If you already own a selection of GoPro-compatible mounts but use a camera with a 1/4" tripod hole, this adapter reduces the need to buy duplicate mounting systems. It allows you to mix and match equipment from brands such as Sony, Xiaomi Yi and other compact camera makers, expanding the usefulness of existing mounts and accessories. The rubber pad avoids direct metal-to-camera contact, which helps protect finishes during regular attachment and removal.

Usage Recommendations

Attach the adapter by screwing the 1/4"-20 thread into the camera base until snug, making sure the rubber pad sits flush against the camera. Slot the adapter into your GoPro-style mount and tighten the locking ring to set the pitch or yaw angle, checking the alignment before recording. For more secure setups use the adapter with mounts rated for your camera's weight, and avoid over-tightening the screw to prevent damage to delicate camera bases.

Note that while the aluminium construction improves durability, heavy professional cameras are outside the scope of this accessory and may exceed its intended load capacity. Also, the locking mechanism is manual and may require occasional retightening during prolonged use to maintain the chosen angle.
