Center Jaw Cardellini

The 2C Center Jaw Cardellini Clamp is engineered for professional film and television crews who need a compact clamp with exceptional stability for heavier lamps, fixtures and on-set rigging. Unlike side-jaw designs, the center jaw sits directly at the base of the baby pin, delivering a more secure mounting point that resists twisting and movement under load. With a 3" jaw width and 2" maximum capacity, this clamp accommodates larger accessories—flags, cutters, small softboxes, meter arms and lighting modifiers—while keeping the footprint minimal.

A 7" shaft gives you the reach required to position gear around stands, rigs and camera setups without compromising strength. The knob and one jaw are removable for rapid reconfiguration, easier access in tight spaces, and simplified attachment to odd-shaped posts or custom fixtures. It shares jaws and pads with the 2E model, making replacement parts and spares interchangeable on set.

Weighing 20 oz., the 2C strikes a balance between portability and robustness, built to withstand the demands of fast-paced production environments. Whether used by G&E for lighting control, grip for practicals, or camera teams for mounting small accessories, this clamp provides dependable, repeatable performance whenever secure, centered mounting is required.
