$10.00 /day

The versatile Kupo KCP-360B matte black multi-functional Alli Clamp, engineered with a high-tension spring mechanism, an integrated 5/8-inch ( $16\text{mm}$ ) baby receiver, and a built-in $1/4"-20$ female thread, now available for rental in Hong Kong. Built to clip swiftly onto pipes, auto-poles, light stands, or tabletop edges to mount flags, lightweight fixtures, and production accessories. (Note: This rental package covers the alli clamp only; stands, pins, and articulation arms are available separately.)

A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.

The Kupo KCP-360B Kupo Alli Clamp (Black)—widely appreciated on professional sets as a structural upgrade to the classic spring crocodile clip—is an exceptionally nimble, highly reliable rigging utility designed for gaffers, commercial photographers, and studio crews, making it a high-frequency item for equipment hire in Hong Kong. Merging the rapid speed of a spring-loaded clip with the tactical mounting versatility of cinema grip hardware, this stealthy matte black tool enables solo crew members to mount lightweight lighting accessories, wireless arrays, or flags anywhere on set instantly without crowding the floor footprint with bulky stands.

When executing an equipment hire for fast-paced corporate interviews, complex tabletop product shoots, or commercial fashion lookbooks in Hong Kong, maximizing on-set rigging speed is paramount. The KCP-360B features uniquely curved alligator-style jaws lined with durable, high-friction rubber pads that bite firmly onto round tubes, rectangular boards, or table lips up to $40\text{mm}$ thick. With its built-in 5/8-inch ( $16\text{mm}$ ) baby receiver sleeve and a $1/4"-20$ threaded tap, this clamp transforms any stand column, auto-pole, or architectural rail into an immediate tactical rigging point.

Applicable Scenarios:

Rigging Lightweight Accessories on Stand Columns: Clips onto the vertical tubes of standard light stands or C-Stands inside production spaces in Kwun Tong or Chai Wan to mount wireless video transmitters or audio field receivers cleanly.
Securing Flags and Foam Core Reflector Cards: Mounts quickly onto tabletop edges or crossbars to support portable fill cards, black showcards, or small diffusion sheets perfectly at crisp angles.
Agile Location Interview Tweaks: Snaps onto horizontal window rails or office partitions during video shoots in Central to float compact LED accent panels or microphone mounts without breaking the visual timeline.

Heavy-Duty Mechanical Spring Mechanism: High-tension steel coil delivers intense, instant biting pressure that naturally resists material shifting or sliding under vertical load paths.
Dual Multi-Utility Mounting Points: Features an integrated 5/8-inch ( $16\text{mm}$ ) baby receiver socket with a locking thumb knob, paired with a universal $1/4"-20$ female threaded tap on the tail.
Non-Slip Matrix Rubber Jaws: Jaws are lined with durable, textured black rubber matrix pads to increase mechanical friction while protecting delicate location surfaces from scratches.
Stealth Matte Black Hardened Finish: Black powder-coated anodized treatment minimizes specular glares and unwanted reflections under high-intensity continuous light paths.
Rugged Die-Cast Aluminum Build: High-strength aluminum composition keeps the tool exceptionally lightweight while managing rugged on-set drops and demanding handling parameters.

Kupo KCP-360B Kupo Alli Clamp (Black) x 1
(Note: This rental listing covers the standalone alli clamp tool only. Vertical light stands, baby pins, stud adapters, and articulating magic arms are available for add-on rent separately at our Hong Kong studio.)

Q: Is a vertical light stand, mounting baby pin, or articulating arm included inside this rental package?
A: No, it is not. This specific rental listing covers the standalone Kupo KCP-360B clamp only. It is intended for production teams who already have their own support accessories or wish to configure a custom layout. If you require a matching spigot or adapter stud to mount your gear, please consider adding our Kupo KS-003 or KS-026 hex studs to your Hong Kong gear allocation.
Q: What is the maximum opening width of the jaws, and what surfaces can it grip?
A: The Kupo Alli Clamp features an optimized jaw profile that opens to a maximum of approximately 40mm. Thanks to its contoured rubber-lined jaw paths, it can bite firmly onto round steel pipes, light stand tubes, square timber blocks, or flat conference table edges seamlessly.
Q: Can this spring clamp handle a full-sized professional cinema light safely?
A: No, it should not. The KCP-360B is designed as an agile utility clamp built for lightweight production accessories—such as compact continuous LED panels, wireless video arrays, field monitors, pocket flash units, or flags. For heavy, full-sized cinema fixtures, we strongly recommend utilizing high-capacity hardware like our Kupo KCP-550 Gaffer Grip or a standard heavy-duty Convi Clamp.
Q: How is the rental fee calculated?
A: The rental fee is calculated on a 24-hour basis per rental period at Dream Scenes Studio Hong Kong.
Q: Is a deposit required?
A: Yes, a corresponding deposit is required for all equipment rentals in HK.
Q: What payment methods are accepted for the deposit?
A: We accept credit card authorization for the deposit, which is fast and convenient for local and international crews.
