Rode Thread Adaptor - Universal 1/4" 3/8" & 5/8" Mount Kit

Rode Thread Adaptor: Every Mount Conversion in One Pocket-Sized Kit

The Rode Thread Adaptor is a universal thread adaptor kit for mounting microphones and accessories onto any mic stand, boompole, tripod, or studio arm. It brings together 1/4", 3/8", and 5/8" adaptors in a single integrated set, along with a built-in driver and a carabiner clip, so the one accessory that always seems to go missing is finally the one you never lose. It is the small piece of kit that quietly saves a shoot.

Why Thread Sizes Never Seem to Match

Audio and camera gear is built around three thread standards, and they rarely agree. Microphone stands and clips commonly use 5/8", lighting and grip gear often use 1/4", and boompoles, shock mounts, and many European fittings use 3/8". The moment your mic clip and your stand come from different worlds, nothing screws together. This kit exists to bridge those three standards, so a thread mismatch stops being the thing that halts a session.

Three Adaptors That Combine for Almost Any Conversion

The kit includes a 1/4" male to 5/8" female adaptor for connecting accessories with a 1/4" thread to any standard microphone stand or mount, a 5/8" male to 3/8" female adaptor for fitting accessories such as mic clips or shock mounts to stands with a 5/8" thread, and a 3/8" male to 1/4" female adaptor for mounting microphones and accessories onto camera gear. Because the pieces are integrated, you can combine them to create a wide range of thread conversions rather than carrying a loose bag of single adaptors that scatter across a set.

Built From Steel and Brass, Carried on a Carabiner

This is not a bag of stamped plastic rings. The Thread Adaptor is made from durable stainless steel and brass with a premium feel and finish, so the threads bite cleanly and last a lifetime of use. An integrated driver tightens and loosens the adaptors and camera plates without a coin or a key, and a carabiner clip keeps the whole kit on your camera bag, your sound bag, or your keys. It is designed as an everyday-carry accessory, always there when you need it.

Who the Rode Thread Adaptor Is For

It is for the sound engineer, filmmaker, and photographer who has lost time to a thread that would not match. On set it turns a light stand into a mic stand; in the studio it fits a shock mount to whatever stand is free; in the field it mounts a microphone to camera gear. If you build, break down, and rebuild rigs for a living, this is the pocket-sized kit that keeps everything screwing together, every time.
