Kupo Quick Release Adapter 5/8" with 1/4"-20 Male Threaded Top Mount (KS-086)

Overview

The Kupo KS-086 Quick Release Adapter 5/8" with 1/4"-20 Male Threaded Top Mount is a professional mounting accessory designed for fast attachment and removal of lighting, camera, and audio equipment. It is widely used in film production, television, photography, and studio environments where quick interchange of accessories is required.

Constructed from aluminium with brass and steel components, the KS-086 combines durability with a lightweight design suitable for daily production use. It features a 5/8" (16 mm) baby stud base for mounting into standard grip heads, stands, and clamps, along with a 1/4"-20 male threaded top mount for attaching compatible accessories such as monitors, lights, microphones, and camera accessories.

The adapter is designed to work with Kupo’s quick release system, using a hexagonal base that locks into a spring-loaded receiver mechanism. This allows users to quickly swap mounted accessories by engaging a red release collar, improving workflow efficiency on set. The system is engineered to prevent unwanted rotation while maintaining a secure connection during operation.

With its compact and practical design, the KS-086 is a versatile tool for building flexible and modular rigging setups in fast-paced production environments.
