Gamba per treppiedi Manfrotto 126CSU — gamba singola, portata max 40 kg, altezza max 3,33 m, peso 8,3 kg, argento

Manfrotto 126CSU is a single tripod leg engineered to provide stable, tall support for heavy photographic and lighting equipment. Constructed from aluminium alloy with a chrome-plated steel head section and finished in silver, this single leg combines load capacity with portability for studio and location use. It extends to a maximum height of 3.33 m and supports up to 40 kg while weighing 8.3 kg, making it suitable for stands, booms and large heads where a robust single-leg support is required.

Advantages

The single-leg design offers a compact transport profile while delivering a high maximum load capacity. Chrome plated steel components enhance durability at connection points, and the aluminium alloy construction keeps the overall weight modest for its strength. The leg incorporates three sections with two risers and one levelling leg for height fine-tuning and secure positioning on uneven surfaces. The silver finish provides a neutral appearance suitable for diverse shooting environments.

Suitable for

• Supporting heavy studio heads, booms and lighting fixtures
• Use as a support leg for background systems or sliders on location
• Temporary rigging for large flash or continuous lights
• Situations requiring a tall, single-point support with a compact footprint

Key specifications

• Maximum load capacity: 40 kg
• Maximum height: 3.33 m
• Weight: 8.3 kg
• Material: aluminium alloy with chrome-plated steel head section
• Finish: silver
• Sections: 3 sections with 2 risers
• Levelling: includes 1 levelling leg for uneven surfaces

How to use

Set the leg on a firm surface and extend the sections to the required height, tightening each locking mechanism securely. Use the levelling leg to adjust stability on uneven ground before mounting your head or equipment. Verify load balance and confirm that the total supported weight does not exceed the specified maximum load capacity. When transporting, collapse the sections and secure any loose parts to prevent damage to the chrome-plated surfaces.

Recommendations

For safe operation, always confirm the combined weight of mounted equipment remains under 40 kg and inspect locking mechanisms before each use. Avoid sudden lateral loads and use additional support or sandbags if mounting heavy or awkwardly balanced gear. Store the leg dry and clean to preserve the aluminium finish and chrome-plated steel components.
