Manfrotto 034B autopole 2 Extension tube
$50.00 /day
The Manfrotto 034B Autopole 2 Extension Tube is now available for premium grip rental in Hong Kong. This 2-meter matte black aluminum column seamlessly extends your Autopole setup to conquer extra-high ceilings.
A 10% damage waiver fee will be applied to your order in the rental basket unless proof of own insurance can be supplied.
The Manfrotto 034B Autopole 2 Extension Tube is a professional-grade, highly rigid 2-meter extension column engineered for studio photographers, gaffers, and grips renting in Hong Kong who need to maximize their vertical rigging heights. Constructed from high-strength aluminum alloy and finished with a sleek matte black coating, this heavy-duty accessory adds an extra 200cm of height to standard Autopole configurations. The defining layout advantage of the Manfrotto 034B is its precision-engineered coupling design, which inserts directly and securely into the core Autopole 2 chassis, directly resolving height bottlenecks when working in extra-tall industrial spaces or high-ceiling venues across Hong Kong.
By selecting professional equipment hire through Dream Scenes Studio, production crews ensure an uncompromised extension platform. It maintains the identical outer tube diameter of your main pole, allowing your existing grid components, background hooks, and secondary grip clamps to slide effortlessly onto the extended column without forcing the crew to source custom adapters on time-sensitive schedules.
Applicable Scenarios:
-
Chai Wan and Kwun Tong Industrial Studios: Essential for stretching your Autopole setups to reach raw, high-clearance loft conversions and factory ceilings to hang heavy seamless paper backdrops safely.
-
Hong Kong Luxury Hotel Ballrooms and Event Spaces: Perfect for commercial pop-ups, fashion runway backdrops, and media walls where overhead structures are exceptionally high and traditional stands would block foot traffic.
-
High-Angle Overhead Lighting Grids: Ideal for assembling rock-solid horizontal or vertical support grids near extra-high ceilings to mount compact LED panels, accent fixtures, or hair lights completely out of the frame.
-
Seamless 2-Meter Height Extension: Adds a full 200cm of vertical length to your existing Autopole setup, allowing you to bridge gaps to ultra-high ceilings.
-
High-Strength Aluminum Alloys: Engineered with premium structural wall thickness to ensure uncompromised rigidity and prevent column flexing under compression load.
-
Precision Coupling Insert Mechanism: Built with a rock-solid connecting junction that slips directly into the main pole column, maintaining perfect axial alignment.
-
Identical Tube Outer Diameter: Retains the standard outer diameter profile, guaranteeing full compatibility with standard Super Clamps, background hooks, and grip accessories.
-
Anti-Reflective Black Surface Coating: Coated with a durable matte black finish that completely eliminates specular reflections and light spills on high-contrast sets.

Manfrotto 034B Autopole 2 Extension Tube (2m, Black) × 1
⚠️ Note: This single-item rental includes the 2-meter extension tube ONLY. It does NOT include the base Autopole 2 structure, protective rubber feet, Super Clamps, crossbars, background hooks, or lighting fixtures. Please ensure you add a compatible main Autopole unit and required grip accessories to your cart separately.
-
Q: Can I stack multiple Manfrotto 034B extension tubes together to reach extremely high industrial ceilings on HK sets?
A: While the coupling joints are precision-machined, stacking multiple extension tubes significantly reduces the structural stability and compression capacity of the overall system. To maintain strict structural safety on set, we highly recommend using only one extension tube per Autopole setup. For ceilings higher than the extended range, please consult our team to rent specialized heavy-duty staging trusses or heavy crank stands.
-
Q: Does the 034B extension tube change the load capacity of my main Autopole 2 setup?
A: Yes. Extending any support pole increases the physical leverage acting on the column. When the 2m extension tube is attached, the overall structural load rating is reduced compared to using the main pole standalone. Always mount heavier light fixtures or multiple background rolls on the lower, thicker sections of the main pole rather than high up on the extension tube.
-
Q: Will my standard Super Clamps and background hooks fit directly onto this extension tube?
A: Yes, absolutely. The 034B is engineered with the exact same outer diameter profile as the main sections of the Manfrotto Autopole series. Your standard professional studio clamps, multi-pole background hangers, and grip arms will lock onto it perfectly with zero play.
-
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.
