60" Super C-Stand Physics & High-Elevation Safety Standards
Hollywood Stage Protocols15' 4" Extreme Reach & Column Lever Moments
33.0 LBS COLUMN WLLTelescoping to an extraordinary 15' 4" (468.6 cm) maximum elevation, this stand is engineered with heavy-wall seamless steel tubing rated for 33.0 lbs (15.0 kg) direct vertical payload. When extending boom arms at full height, rotational leverage forces multiply significantly, requiring strict torque management.
High-Elevation Flag & Cutter Rigging
ELIMINATES HEAVY COMBOSDesigned to place solid cutters, branchloris patterns, and high-angle backlight scrims high above the set without the bulky footprint of a combo stand. The oversized casting collars deliver positive steel-on-steel friction to prevent telescoping column slippage.
Dual-Sandbag High-Leg Ballast Protocol
MOMENT COUNTERWEIGHTINGDue to the 15+ ft vertical center of mass, standard single sandbagging is insufficient. Always stack two 25 lb saddle sandbags (50 lbs total) directly over the high sliding Rocky Mountain leg oriented in the direction of the cantilevered load.

ALTERNATIVEβ’ Detachable 1-1/8" Junior Socket: Column unscrews in 5 seconds to convert into a standalone low-angle floor turtle stand.
β’ 1.5" (3.8 cm) Floor Clearance: Ultra-low profile slides effortlessly beneath dolly tracks, sound carts, and set furniture.
β’ Modular Packing: Risers and folded bases pack separately into flight cases or grip truck bins.
Spring-Loaded Turtle Base
ALTERNATIVEβ’ Twist-and-Lock Spring Detent: Single twist action instantly deploys and locks legs into 120Β° stance with zero loose knobs.
β’ Vibration-Proof Interlock: High-tension internal spring mechanism prevents leg drift during rapid set moves.
β’ 4.0" (10.2 cm) Floor Clearance: Higher under-hub housing protects internal spring detents.
Super Sliding Leg Base
ALTERNATIVEβ’ Dual Independent Sliding Legs: Two sliding collars allow Leg 2 and Leg 3 to be positioned at separate elevation planes.
β’ Extreme Architectural Geometry: Conquers steep stadium bleachers, spiral staircases, and irregular scaffolding pipes.
β’ Stance Modulation: Adjust footprint diameter for narrow soundstage alleyways or high-wind stances.
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 C-Stand Rigging Package
Engineered to integrate seamlessly with Norms 2-1/2" Gobo Heads, Stainless Steel Grip Extension Arms, Spring Clamps, and Cordura Saddle Sandbags.
