Background Expansion Drive and holder Bracket Set
The Background Expansion Drive and holder Bracket Set is a set of two adapters that allow you to attach a Paper or Vinyl Backdrop for permanent studio use. Each drive system features a drive chain, allowing you to roll or unroll your backgrounds with ease, perfect during a busy shoot. The Background Hook Brackets can be attached directly to stands and then hold up the expansion drive and background, ideal for a quick and easy set-up. This equipment is ideal for a busy studio environment that need to change backgrounds quickly without issue.
Each adapter features a strong and durable construction and can be used with any seamless paper and vinyl backgrounds that feature a core diameter between 45mm and 72mm whilst holding a maximum load capacity of 10KG. Each adapter slides into the end of the core and then can be held securely in place by one of our Brackets, keeping that background in place at all times. This is perfect for any photographer with a wide range of different backdrops that wishes to change easily between shoots.
The addition of a durable and strong drive chain allows the background to be rolled and unrolled when required, ideal for making easier adjustments between different shoots. The drive chain features an attachable counter weight, making sure that the background is held in place after adjustments have been made to prevent any unwanted movement during your photography.
This Background Hook Bracket can be securely clamped to many different objects including light stands, tripods and autopoles. In conjunction with roll expand holders, these background hooks can hold up your paper/metal roll background. With these 2 hooks, it can instantly turn a pair of your stands into background support system. It can be locked on any stands that have tube diameter up to 4cm, allowing for compatibility with a wide range of different stands and support systems.

Background brackets for autopoles.
Delighted with this. Easy to clamp onto autopoles and set up the chain and attach to the background. Chain makes raising and lowering the background really easily. I would have liked a 3 tier bracket but this is not recommended for the autopole system - we need to be sensible. A feature I would like to see added if possible is a brake or lock mechanism to stop the roll unrolling but you can simply put a pin through the links in the chain to stop any movement.
