Made in USA – Quality You Can Count On

The Acratech 1285 GXP-SS ball head is made in the USA and stands for the highest quality and durability. The open structure of the head prevents moisture, dirt, and debris from settling, making it particularly robust and easy to maintain.

Compatibility for Your Equipment

The screw clamp of the GXP-SS is Arca-style compatible and accommodates various dovetail systems, including Flexshooter, Really Right Stuff, Wimberley, Pro Media Gear, UniqBall, and Kirk. This makes it a flexible solution for DSLM, DSLR, medium format, and studio photography.

Perfect for Demanding Photography

Whether panoramic photography, wedding photography, landscape photography, or macro photography – the Acratech 1285 GXP-SS is prepared for any challenge. Its separate panoramic base and spirit level enable precise adjustments, while the large locking knob is easy to operate even with gloves.

Technical Details That Convince

The ball head is made of black anodized aluminum and is equipped with a 3/8" and 1/4" UNC internal thread. The ball has a diameter of 38 mm, and the base measures 5.3 cm. Please note that the 3/8" mounting thread is only 8 mm long – inserting longer screws may damage the ball.
