Kupo KS-040 28mm Pin W/ M10 Thread & Plate
$20.00 /day
The heavy-duty Kupo KS-040 structural 28mm (1-1/8 inch) Junior pin adapter, featuring a male M10 threaded bolt and a wide anti-twist square flange plate, engineered from rugged zinc-plated steel, now available for rental in Hong Kong. Built to bolt securely into wide lighting fixture yokes or bracket channels to provide maximum structural stabilization on heavy combo stands. (Note: This rental package covers the pin adapter and plate hardware only; stands and clamps are available for rent 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 KS-040 28mm Pin W/ M10 Thread & Plate—widely known in the industry as a Junior Pin Flange Adapter—is an essential, high-strength structural rigging utility designed for professional studio gaffers, cinematographers, and production grip crews, making it a highly reliable asset for equipment hire in Hong Kong. Engineered to convert standard threaded gear into heavy-duty stand-ready configurations, this solid steel adapter features a metric male M10 screw on one end, a large anti-twist square metal collar plate in the center, and an industry-standard 28mm ($1-1/8″$) Junior male pin on the other.
When executing an equipment hire for heavy narrative cinema sets, wide commercial studios, or high-output continuous lighting configurations in Hong Kong, preventing heavy fixtures from twisting or loosening under heavy physical torque is paramount. The KS-040 bolts directly through the center attachment point of wide lighting yokes or background bracket frames. The addition of the integrated wide metal flange plate distributes downward pressure over a larger surface area, ensuring a flush lock that eliminates accidental rotational slippage or loose mechanical wobbling when tilting heavy fixtures on heavy-duty combo stands or wind-up columns.
Applicable Scenarios:
-
Stabilizing Large Cinema Lights on Combo Stands: Bolts cleanly onto the wide mounting brackets of heavy continuous cinema lights inside deep production stages in Kwun Tong or Chai Wan, keeping the fixture locked solid.
-
Rigging Lighting Fixtures onto Scaffolding Clamps: Pairs with heavy-duty structural barrel couplers or truss clamps to hang high-power fixtures safely from overhead pipe grids with zero risk of twisting.
-
Heavy Custom Background Support Rigging: Attaches onto custom modular crossbar plates or slider brackets to establish an ultra-stable horizontal layout with robust rolling combo stand infrastructure.
-
Heavy-Duty High-Tensile Steel Build: Industrial-grade solid steel engineering completely eliminates physical shearing, stripping, or bending under severe vertical payload tracking.
-
Anti-Twist Square Flange Plate: Integrated circular-to-square metal collar plate provides massive surface contact friction, preventing heavy lighting fixtures from twisting loose when tilted.
-
Standard Metric Male M10 Threads: Precision-cut mechanical metric threads ensure an absolute lock when bolted into standard commercial lighting yokes or adapter plates.
-
Universal 28mm (1-1/8″) Junior Pin Barrel: Outer dimensions match standard film industry heavy stand terminations, junior combo sockets, and heavy-duty rigging clamps perfectly.
-
Integrated Safety Spring Washer Set: Supplied paired with a heavy-duty locking spring washer and hex nut to distribute physical torque evenly and prevent accidental spin loosening on set.

(Note: This rental listing covers the standalone pin adapter and plate hardware only. Combo stands, truss clamps, lighting fixtures, and installation tools are available for add-on rent separately at our Hong Kong studio.)
-
Q: Is the vertical combo stand, truss clamp, or lighting fixture included inside this rental package?
A: No, it is not. This specific rental listing covers the standalone Kupo KS-040 flange adapter and nut set only. It is intended for production teams who already have their own fixtures or wish to configure a custom rigging array. If you require a complete support system, please remember to add a matching rolling combo stand, wind-up stand, or heavy scaffolding clamps to your Hong Kong gear allocation.
-
Q: What is the main structural difference between this KS-040 adapter and the KS-030 adapter?
A: Both adapters feature a 28mm Junior pin and an M10 male thread. However, the KS-030 is a narrow, streamlined cylindrical pin, while this KS-040 adapter features a wide built-in square flange plate in the middle. This plate acts as an anti-twist stabilization platform, providing a much larger surface area to lock firmly against wide lighting yokes, preventing the heavy fixture from rotating loose when adjusted on set.
-
Q: Can this steel flange adapter handle a heavy professional cinema light safely?
A: Yes, absolutely. The Kupo KS-040 is manufactured from solid high-strength steel specifically engineered to support heavy vertical and cantilevered loads. It allows you to transform standard unpinned brackets into ultra-secure, anti-twist 28mm Junior terminations, ensuring absolute safety when mounting large fixtures onto robust steel combo stands.
-
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.
