40" Sliding Leg C-Stand 2-Packs
The 40" Sliding-Leg C-Stand, now in a matched pair. One box. One delivery. Freight included. Ready to work.
One is Never Enough
Many setups need a second C-Stand before they need anything else - one to hold your light, one to hold your diffusion; or one for backdrop, one for fill. The 40" Sliding-Leg C-Stand 2-Pack gives you both from day one, matched in chrome or black, in one box with one delivery and freight included. Each stand features the sliding leg that made this design famous - a quick adjustment that levels your rig on stairs, curbs, or uneven ground without extra hardware. Built for Content Creators shooting solo and Filmmakers with crews, and just as at home on a corporate video set or in a photo studio, it's the same C-Stand the industry has trusted for decades.

What You'll Actually Do With Two

Every arm ends in a Matthews 5/8" Baby Pin
The Hollywood Arm included with this kit isn't sold on its own - it's exclusive, included with any C-Stand purchase. Its knurled baby pin is tapped 1/4"-20, so the end of the arm is a mounting point for more than your fixture. Thread on a small accessory directly, or use the pin to boom out a fixture, with the same premium safety features Matthews provides on all its 5/8" pins: the undercut that keeps a fixture from walking off if it loosens and the knurled bite that's held up on sets for decades. With our 'set-it-and-forget-it' grip head on one end and the knurled 5/8" pin on the other end, this arm is ready to go to work.
Matthews Patented the Sliding Leg C-Stand
Everyone else eventually copied the idea, but nobody's matched the build. Our C-Stand is still leveling on stairs, curbs, and uneven ground or terrain - one leg slides, the base holds it down. Plus our C-Stand is fully repairable, from the legs to the risers to the t-handles to the feet - all available on our Parts Store.
