NICEYRIG Nato Lock Clamp 7cm for LED lights 📷
Product description
This NATO-style clamp provides a compact and secure way to attach small accessories to camera rigs and NATO rails, offering fast locking and release for lights, monitors or microphones. It combines a low-profile mount with a 7 cm safety rail to keep items stable on set, making repositioning quick and straightforward for run-and-gun shoots or studio setups.
Key Points
The clamp includes top-threaded holes that accept 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 screws, so you can mount a small camera, monitor or wireless receiver directly on the unit. It features a lever-operated locking mechanism for quick release, which helps when you need to change accessories rapidly during a shoot. The design adapts to a standard NATO rail of 20.5 mm width, with an adjustable fit that may require fine-tuning to obtain the correct lock position on rails of slightly different profiles. For added flexibility you can attach a cold shoe to the top plate to secure an LED light or a microphone 🎥. A 7 cm safety rail is included to prevent accidental slips when moving equipment under pressure 💡.
Technical Specifications
- Name: NICEYRIG Nato Lock Clamp with Quick Release Safety Rail 7cm
- Compatible rail width: 20.5 mm (adjustable fit)
- Top threads: 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16
- Safety rail length: 7 cm
- Included items: clamp and 7 cm safety rail
Usage Recommendations
For best results mount the clamp on a well-machined NATO rail and ensure the lever is fully engaged before adding heavy accessories. If your rail has a slightly different width, position the clamp and tighten incrementally so the lock seats correctly. Use the cold shoe mounting point to stack small accessories such as a compact LED panel and a lavalier receiver, but consider separate support for heavier monitors to reduce stress on the clamp. When working outdoors check that dust or grit has not built up in the sliding surfaces and clear debris before locking the lever.
Note a practical limitation, according to the manufacturer the clamp is optimised for small accessories and may not be the best option for heavy professional monitors or large batteries. The quick-release action speeds up changes, however if you require maximum load capacity consider using a dedicated support arm alongside this clamp.
