FAQs

Heavy Duty Aluminium Survey Tripod
What is the benefit of the dual-clamp system?
It provides the best of both worlds: a quick-release clamp for fast setup and a wing-screw to ensure the legs stay locked even if the lever is accidentally bumped.

Will this tripod fit my Leica or Topcon instrument?
Yes, it uses a standard 5-8-11 threaded mounting stud, which is the universal connection for almost all total stations, GNSS receivers, and lasers.

Heavy Duty Aluminium Survey Tripod
Is this tripod suitable for robotic total stations?
While it is very stable, for high-end robotic work where tracking is constant, some surveyors prefer even heavier timber or fiberglass models; however, this is one of the most stable aluminum options available.

What is the collapsed length for storage?
The tripod collapses down to approximately 102cm (40 inches), making it easy to store in a standard vehicle boot or site chest.
