CONNECT HUB
COMPACT. VERSATILE. STRONG.
A modular clamp-on shooting and glassing platform. Hub gives you a secure mounting point without drilling, vehicle-specific brackets, permanent mounts, or a full tripod footprint.
Built to work with common tripod accessories such as ballheads, panheads, saddle mounts, Arca-Swiss setups, and more — giving you a compact platform you can move from vehicle to bench, blind, tailgate, tripod, or field setup.
Built to stay secure under load, recoil, vibration, and real-world use.
- 3" wide mounting plate
- 3/8″ & 1/4" Compatible through-hole
- Multi-axis configuration
- 500+ lbs of clamping force
- 6061-T6 billet aluminum
Two offset positions. Every angle you need.
Two offset bar mounting holes — one on the bottom, one on the rear. Swap between them for horizontal or vertical mounting, or to find the right angle.
Precision replaces brute force
Tight-tolerance CNC aluminum bar (±.002″) with full surface contact when locked. Adjusts the unit's total offset from your mounting structure between 8.5″ and 17.5″, depending on configuration. Rotates 360° at the connection points to orient your setup exactly where you need it.
Stays snug under recoil and vibration.
Custom TPU dampeners sit between the clamp and knobs, allowing ~0.005″ of micro-play that absorbs vibration and recoil — keeping the Hub snug over time.
One shim, three jobs
Stores around the offset bar, drops into either jaw to clamp flat surfaces at any thickness, or shims smaller and odd-shaped structures.
Real leverage in awkward positions
Oversized 3/8″ ratcheting handle on the main clamp — designed for high-leverage tightening when you're reaching around a roll cage or wedged into a blind. Sized to never compete with the smaller adjustment knobs elsewhere on the unit. A smaller version of this handle also ships on the Pro Bar and underneath the Connect Deck.
Adjust 290°, then lock it dead
L-shaped bracket made from quarter-inch 5052 aluminum with a durable powder-coated finish. The primary pivot has its own friction resistance for fine positioning; the secondary lockout drops into a circular notch for zero-movement hold across roughly 290° of rotation. A 3/8″ through-hole on top accepts both 1/4″ and 3/8″ mounting hardware.
Damps vibration. Seats any ball head.
PETG top pad seats between your gear and the 2.8″ wide mounting platform — wide enough to accommodate virtually any standard ball head or mounting accessory. Engineered to dampen vibration and keep your mounting hardware from backing out under load and vibration.
Standard mount. Use your own or get one from us.
The ballhead pictured is shown for reference — not included with the Hub. The 2.8″ mounting platform features a centered 3/8-16 through-hole that accepts virtually any standard tripod head: Arca ballhead, panhead, fluid head, or any 1/4-20 / 3/8-16 threaded mount. Bring your own setup, or browse our compatible accessories.
How it works
Clamp it
Mount it
Go
Built for Where You Actually Need It
One platform. Real environments. The structures already around you.
One Mount, Every Setup
The mounting platform up top stays the same — only the attachment changes. Drop on an Arca ballhead, a saddle rest, or a video head. Whatever the day calls for, your gear stays locked in.
Locked-In, Not Just Steady
Range-bench stability from your roll bar, vehicle rack, or blind rail. With 500+ lb of clamping force, the Connect becomes part of the structure — no bolts, no tedious setup. Stays where you put it under recoil, vibration, and real-world use.
Glass For Hours, Not Minutes
Locked-in optics platform that holds steady through the long sit. Spotter, binoculars, or long-lens camera — same clamp, same hold, anywhere you can reach.
Dedication without limitation
No bolts. No vehicle-specific kits. No tedious assembly. Open the jaws, clamp on, lock in. You're using your gear before they've opened their tripod.
Fits the Gear You Already Own
The wide mounting platform features a simple 3/8″ & 1/4" Compatible through-hole so you can bring whatever mounting system you already run.
Your Tripod Head, Mounted.
Ballhead, panhead, fluid head — if it has a thread on the bottom, it mounts directly to the Hub. Your existing clamps and quick-releases stay on top of the head where they already live; only the base changes.
Your Setup, Locked In.
Whatever system you prefer to lock down your rifle threads or mounts onto the Hub's platform. No proprietary parts to buy.
Anything Threaded, Bolted Down.
Spotting scopes, rangefinders, action cameras, video heads — anything with 3/8-16 or 1/4-20 thread mounts directly to the platform. No Proprietary Part Limitations.
Where Tripods Stop, the Connect Begins
Tripods have their place — but not every environment lends itself to wrestling with legs and the footprint they require.
No Legs in the Way
No tripod sprawl. Connect clamps to what's already there — your vehicle, your bench, your blind rail. Less setup time. Less ground to lose.
No Bolts, No Vehicle-Specific Kits
Every off-road vehicle, every UTV, every side-by-side. Switch rigs without buying a new mount. No drilling, no resale damage, no permanent install.
Smaller Footprint Than Your Bag
Fits in your range bag. Doesn't bulk up your kit. Travels with the gear, deploys when you need it, packs away when you don't.
Not Anti-Tripod
For some setups, a tripod is still the right tool — and Connect clamps onto a tripod leg when it's the right call. The point isn't to replace your tripod. It's to give you a mount that goes where your tripod can't.
Why It Works
Six things it does that other mounts don't.
Compact
Stows in a range bag. No legs to deploy. No footprint when set up.
Dual-Stage Hold
Primary positioning plus a secondary lockout that holds with hardware. Doesn't slip under recoil, vibration, or repeated load.
Clamps Anything Structural
Round 0.5–2.5", square or rectangular 0.5–2.7", flat up to 2.7". Roll bars, vehicle racks, blind rails, range benches, tripod legs, and more.
Quick Mount
On in seconds, no tools. Open the jaws, clamp on, lock the handle. Off the same way.
Replaceable Parts, Every Single One
From hardware to TPU jaw inserts and everything in between — built to be maintained, not replaced.
Made in the USA
CNC-machined in the USA from 6061 T6 billet aluminum. Assembled and shipped from our headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas. Lifetime warranty.
Why It's Built This Way
The honest version. Open the dropdowns if you want to see what's underneath the marketing.
Why Our Clamp Works
- CNC-machined from solid blocks of 6061 aluminum
- No welds, cast points, or weak joints
- V-shaped jaws create opposing force vectors — not just pressure
- Strong hold even with partial contact
Translation: works where other clamps fail.
Precision Fit & Stability
- Tight-tolerance telescoping bar (±.002")
- Full surface contact when locked — not a single pinch point
- Requires less force to secure
Translation: precision replaces brute force.
Built to Stay Tight Over Time
- TPU jaw inserts absorb vibration and recoil
- PETG interface pad reduces fastener loosening
- Designed for repeated real-world use
Translation: not just tight — stays tight.
Hardware That Matters
- The clamps oversized 3/8" barrel nut for deep thread engagement
- Glass-filled nylon ratcheting handle for real leverage in awkward positions
- Zinc-plated rod paired with stainless barrel nut to prevent galling and seizing under repeated load
Translation: the parts most clamps cut corners on.
Pivot System Explained
- Primary center pivot: controlled movement for positioning
- Secondary lockout: zero movement once set
Translation: adjust when you need to. Lock when it matters.
Built for Long-Term Ownership
- Replaceable components — every single one
- In-house parts support, USA-stocked
- Lifetime warranty on Connect
Translation: built to be maintained, not replaced.
Adjust It. Then Lock It.
Multi-axis configuration gives you four adjustment points beyond the ball or pan head on top — offset bar mount position, telescoping length, 360° rotation, and the locking pivot bracket. Slightly loosen each to find your angle and offset, dial in your setup, and lock them all back down. The ball or pan head on top handles the final level, so you're set up correctly in any environment.
Loosen, position, lock — and it stays where you put it.
Built By People Who Use It
We didn't outsource the design and we didn't water it down. The Hub got machined, broken, redesigned, and re-tested in the same shop in Bentonville where it ships from now. Every part is replaceable. Every spec is what we'd want on our own rigs. That's the whole pitch.
