Product Details / Description:

For unique, fixed-point camera angles during your Japanese travels—such as mounting to a car window for scenic driving footage or a storefront window for a time-lapse—the Vacuum Mount Gripper II with Head offers reliable stability. Its powerful vacuum system and adjustable head make it a versatile tool for filmmakers on the move.

About the Product

The core of the Gripper II is its pump-type piston, which efficiently removes air from beneath the one hundred twenty millimeter diameter rubber cup, creating a strong vacuum. A visible red ring indicator is a key safety feature: if the ring starts to appear, it signals a loss of vacuum pressure, alerting the user to re-pump the piston to restore the seal. It is essential to check this indicator if using the mount continuously, despite the approximate two-hour adsorption time.

The included three-way head allows for independent adjustment of pan, tilt, and roll, giving you precise control over your camera’s angle. With a total height of one hundred sixty-five millimeters, the entire unit is compact, yet the head (weighing seven hundred twenty-five grams) and the suction cup (weighing two hundred thirty-five grams) provide a sturdy foundation for equipment up to two kilograms.

Faqs:

How do I know if the vacuum mount is securely attached?

The mount includes a red ring mark indicator. When the piston is fully pumped and the vacuum is secure, the red ring will disappear. If the red ring begins to show, the suction power is decreasing, and you must re-pump the piston immediately to ensure safety.

What is the maximum weight the Vacuum Mount Gripper II can hold?

The maximum load capacity for this mount is two kilograms (about four point four pounds). It is vital not to exceed this limit for safety, especially in dynamic environments like moving vehicles.

Can I use this mount on a curved surface like a car door panel?

The mount requires a flat, smooth, non-porous surface, such as glass, metal panels, or polished plastics. Highly curved or textured surfaces will prevent a proper vacuum seal and are unsafe for mounting.

How long does the vacuum suction typically last?

The manufacturer states an approximate adsorption time of two hours. However, this duration can vary based on the surface condition and temperature. Continuous monitoring of the red ring safety indicator is highly recommended during use.

Does the three-way head provide full adjustment flexibility?

Yes, the three-way head allows you to independently control the pan (horizontal rotation), tilt (vertical angle), and roll (side-to-side leveling) of your camera, providing maximum flexibility in framing your shot once the mount is secured.
