High Roller Soundstage Physics & Overhead Safety Standards
Hollywood Stage ProtocolsOverhead Elevation & 88.0 lbs Direct Payload
88.0 LBS OVERHEAD WLLTelescoping up to 16' 2"β20' 2" (493β615 cm) with an 88.0 lbs (40.0 kg) direct vertical payload limit, engineered for large butterfly textiles, overhead light banks, and heavy spotlight packages on studio soundstages.
7.0" Stage Feeder Cable Ground Clearance
CABLE MANAGEMENT BASEThe signature arched spider casting provides 7.0" (17.8 cm) of clearance under the central hub, allowing the heavy-duty braked caster wheels to glide effortlessly over 4/0 AWG stage feeder cables, banded multi-cables, and distro boxes.
Dual-Action Braked Casters & Wind Protocols
ZERO-DRIFT LOCKDOWNFoot-operated dual-action brakes lock both wheel roll and swivel rotation simultaneously. Above 15 feet elevation, always attach 3-point guy-wire tie-downs when used outdoors or in high-draft stage environments.

Choose Your Finish: Classic Triple-Chrome vs. Norms Void Black Edition
Both finishes share identical heavy-wall ASTM A513 DOM steel risers, ductile iron castings, and our First-Ever Lifetime Stand Warranty. Select the surface treatment engineered for your production environment:
Classic Triple-Chrome
The time-tested Hollywood benchmark. Built with multi-layer electroplated copper, nickel, and micro-crack chrome over precision DOM steel for ultra-low friction riser movement and maximum surface hardness.
- Ultra-Smooth Telescoping: Mirror-polished chrome provides near-frictionless riser adjustment inside nylon brake collars.
- Maximum Scratch & Wear Hardness: High Rockwell surface hardness resists dings and scratches from heavy grip cart transport.
- Fleet Uniformity: Matches existing studio rental house inventories across Los Angeles and worldwide.
Void Black Edition
Engineered exclusively by Norms Studio Equipment. Electrostatically applied thermoset matte powder coat thermally cured at 400Β°F (204Β°C) for zero-glare stealth and accelerated thermal dissipation.
- Zero Specular Glare (<2% Reflectance): Eliminates camera reflections in glass, cars, eyewear, and lens flare hotspots.
- Rapid Radiative Cooldown (Ξ΅ ≈ 0.92): Radiates stored heat 15x faster than chrome when 18kW HMIs/LEDs are cut at wrap.
- Virtual Production (ICVFX) Ready: Absorbs stray spill on Unreal Engine 5 LED volume walls with zero screen bounceback.
- All-Weather Tactile Grip: Textured matte surface ensures positive non-slip handling with gloved or wet hands.
Complete Your Overhead Support Package
Equipped with integrated 4" Lollipop Grip Head and 1-1/8" Junior Receiver. Engineered for Butterfly/Overhead Frames (8x8, 12x12, 20x20), Guy-Wire Tie-Down Kits, and 35β50 lb heavy saddlebags.
