Leofoto TFV rubber foot / stainless steel spike combination (set of 3)

Leofoto TFV rubber foot / stainless steel spike combination (set of 3) when you want your tripod to stand securely just about anywhere

Sometimes the tripod stands perfectly, everything is calm, nothing wobbles. And then all it takes is a different surface—smooth tiles, damp forest floor, gravel—and suddenly things get unstable. This is exactly where the Leofoto TFV rubber foot / stainless steel spike set comes in: you screw it onto your tripod once, and from then on you have the right solution for almost any surface directly on the leg.

Suitable for tripods with 3/8" UNC photo thread on the lower tripod leg

The set of 3 is designed to fit any lower tripod leg with a 3/8" UNC photo thread mounting bolt. So if your tripod has this classic 3/8" UNC thread at the end of the leg, you can simply unscrew the original feet and mount the TFV combination. No special tools, no tinkering—just screw on and tighten.

Especially with high-quality carbon or aluminum tripods, this thread is standard, so you can use the TFV feet as a full-fledged replacement foot—not just as an emergency solution, but as a permanent, robust upgrade to your setup.

Rubber foot for secure grip on smooth and delicate surfaces

The outer rubber foot ensures a steady, non-slip stand on many typical surfaces: studio floors, parquet, tiles, asphalt, concrete, or even smooth stones. The relatively wide contact area with a diameter of about 3.5 cm distributes the weight of your tripod nicely, so the foot does not sink in as easily or leave pressure marks.

On top of that, rubber dampens slight vibrations. If you work with longer exposure times, shoot macros, or film with a telephoto lens, this extra stability helps you noticeably reduce camera shake. It’s not magic, but it is that small difference that can mean the gap between “just slightly soft” and “really tack sharp.”

Stainless steel spike for difficult terrain, ready to use in seconds

Inside the rubber foot sits a stainless steel spike that you simply unscrew when needed. No reconfiguring with separate spikes, no searching through your backpack—the spike is integrated directly into the foot. When the ground becomes softer, uneven, or slippery, you extend the spike and anchor your tripod securely in the ground.

On forest floor, grass, gravel, soil, snow, or frozen ground, the stainless steel spike offers significantly more grip than a pure rubber foot. This allows you to deliberately “stick” your tripod into place and avoid wobbly legs. Switching between rubber foot and spike is quick and easy, so even with changing locations you don’t have to rebuild your entire setup every time.

Robust construction and compact dimensions

Each individual foot measures approximately 4.9 cm in length and around 3.5 cm in diameter. This keeps your tripod pleasantly compact overall, while still giving you a stable contact area. With a weight of about 47 g per foot, the set is light enough to leave mounted permanently without unnecessarily adding to your total weight.

The combination of durable rubber and stainless steel is designed for a long service life. The stainless steel spike is corrosion-resistant and therefore suitable for humid environments, coastal areas, or wet meadows. In short: you can take the set on tour without much hesitation, even when the weather doesn’t cooperate.

Flexibility in everyday use, from the studio to the mountains

In the studio, you benefit from the clean, rubberized contact that protects floors while providing a stable stand. Outdoors, on the go, you can quickly switch to the spike when the ground becomes softer or more unpredictable. This versatility makes the TFV feet a practical addition for landscape, architecture, and travel photography, but also for video shoots where a steady image is crucial.

We’d say: if you don’t feel like carrying around different tripod feet all the time and still want to be prepared for different surfaces, this rubber foot / spike combination is a very pragmatic solution. Mount it once, and you’ll be more relaxed in many situations.

Scope of delivery and field of use

The scope of delivery includes a complete set of three Leofoto TFV rubber foot / stainless steel spike combinations, suitable for three-legged tripods with 3/8" UNC photo thread mounting bolts on the lower tripod legs. This allows you to replace all three original feet of your tripod and get a uniform, stable base for your photo and video equipment.

Whether you mainly use your tripod indoors or are regularly out and about, this combination of rubber foot and quickly accessible stainless steel spike makes you significantly more flexible without making your system more complicated. Simply screw it on, get started, and let the ground decide whether rubber or spike is the better choice at the moment.
