The KUPO KCP-844 TV Coupler is a polished die-cast coupler for film and television studio hardware on 48 to 51 mm tube. It provides a 28 mm junior socket rated to 300 kg and a movable 16 mm baby stud with 3/8" thread rated to 40 kg, letting one fitting serve both heavier hangers and lightweight accessories.
Why It Matters
Studio rigs often mix junior and baby hardware on the same pipe. The KCP-844 keeps both options in one certified coupler, with a safety linchpin and bonding wire that protect the luminaire during pan adjustment when the clamp knob is loosened.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use both the 28 mm and 16 mm attachments for the same load?
No. Treat them as separate attachment paths with separate ratings: 300 kg on the 28 mm junior socket and 40 kg on the 16 mm baby stud.
What does the safety linchpin do?
It helps keep the luminaire secured during pan adjustment while the clamp knob is loosened, reducing drop-off risk during fine aiming.
