Really Right Stuff TA-TLC clamp for RRS TVC tripods series 3

TA-TLC clamp for RRS TVC Series 3, small clamp, big difference

Sometimes it’s the inconspicuous parts that really complete a tripod. The Really Right Stuff TA-TLC clamp for RRS TVC Series 3 tripods falls exactly into this category: compact, precisely manufactured, and surprisingly versatile. You attach it to the top leg segment of your Series 3 TVC tripod and create a stable, twist-proof mounting point for accessories that photographers and videographers need all the time in everyday use.

Instead of awkwardly searching for makeshift solutions, this tripod leg clamp keeps everything exactly where it belongs: securely fixed, quickly accessible, and mechanically reliable. No wobbling, no fiddling, no DIY workaround.

Made in the USA, precise manufacturing for RRS TVC Series 3

The TA-TLC clamp is manufactured in the USA, and you can tell. Really Right Stuff is known for building tripod accessories that are not only functional but also extremely durable. The fit on the upper leg segment of the RRS TVC Series 3 is precisely matched so that the clamp sits firmly without slipping, yet can still be positioned flexibly. We’d say: more a tool for life than a disposable part.

Especially when you work with heavier setups or are regularly out in the field, this solid construction pays off. Temperature changes, moisture, frequent repositioning of the tripod – the TA-TLC clamp is designed exactly for this tough daily use.

Two 1/4" UNC threads, accessories where you really need them

At the heart of the TA-TLC clamp are two 1/4" UNC threaded sockets that provide additional mounting points directly on the tripod leg. The distance between the two threads is 30 mm, which allows for a stable, torsion-resistant attachment. You can, for example, securely mount an RRS quick-release clamp such as the B2 LR here, without anything twisting or coming loose.

These two threads are ideal for accessories with a standard 1/4" UNC thread: monitor mounts, magic arms, microphones, small LED panels, wireless receivers, or even an additional camera. In short: everything you would otherwise attach somewhere in an improvised way gets a defined, load-bearing place here.

Anti-rotation slot, securely attaching ball heads and more to the tripod leg

A special detail is the integrated anti-rotation slot. This slot allows you to mount accessories such as a ball head directly on the tripod leg in a twist-proof manner. This way you can, for example, position a second camera on the side of the leg without the mount slowly rotating with every movement.

Especially during longer sessions, such as sports, wildlife, or timelapse, this is a real advantage: you set it up once, tighten everything properly, and can rely on the position holding. No readjusting every few minutes, no gradual sagging or twisting.

Flexible positioning on the upper tripod leg segment

The TA-TLC clamp is attached to the top segment of the RRS TVC Series 3 tripod leg. There you can position it as you like, depending on what your setup looks like. A bit higher for quick access to a monitor, a bit lower for a second camera or a recorder – you simply adjust the position to your way of working.

This flexibility makes the clamp particularly interesting for anyone who uses their tripod as a central base for multiple components. Instead of setting up additional stands, you use what is already there anyway: your stable RRS TVC Series 3 tripod.

Easy installation, quickly mounted, ready to use immediately

The installation of the Really Right Stuff TA-TLC clamp is intentionally kept simple. You place the clamp around the upper leg segment of your Series 3 TVC tripod, tighten it, and you’re ready to go. No complex modifications are required, no special tools, no hours of fine-tuning.

If you change your setup frequently, you’ll appreciate this simplicity. The clamp can be loosened, repositioned, or mounted on another leg in just a few moments if needed. Fast, pragmatic, and without any fuss.

Compatibility with RRS TVC Series 2, Series 3, and Series 4 tripods

Even though this version of the TA-TLC clamp is specifically designed for the RRS TVC Series 3, there are matching versions for the RRS TVC Series 2 and Series 4. Each version is precisely matched in its dimensions to the respective leg diameter so that the clamp grips securely and holds optimally.

This means that if you use multiple RRS tripods, you can choose the appropriate leg clamp for each series and build a uniform accessory system. The result is a tidy, well-thought-out setup in which everything has its fixed place.

Version for Series 2, compact variant with precise dimensions

For the RRS TVC Series 2 tripods, there is a dedicated version of the tripod leg clamp. This variant has a length of 46 mm and a width of 45 mm. The weight is a light 24 g, so your tripod is hardly additionally burdened.

The inner diameter of the clamp for Series 2 is 32.6 mm. This dimension is important because it shows how precisely the clamp is matched to the upper leg segment. The fit ensures that the clamp neither wobbles nor clamps the material excessively. A stable, clean connection that has proven itself in practice.

Version for Series 3, optimized for RRS TVC tripods of the 3 series

The TA-TLC clamp for the RRS TVC Series 3, which is the specific subject here, is slightly larger. It measures 50 mm in length and 49 mm in width. At 27 g, it still remains pleasantly light and hardly affects the balance of the tripod.

The inner diameter of this Series 3 version is 36.7 mm. This means it fits exactly on the upper leg segment of the RRS TVC tripods of the 3 series. This precise matching is crucial so that the clamp holds securely without damaging the material or twisting under load.

Version for Series 4, robust option with larger diameter

For the more robust RRS TVC Series 4 tripods, there is a correspondingly adapted version of the tripod leg clamp. This variant is slightly larger, with a length of 53 mm and a width of 54 mm, and weighs 35 g.

The inner diameter of the Series 4 version is 40.7 mm. This securely encloses the stronger leg segment of Series 4. Here too, the following applies: the clamp is designed to sit firmly without binding and to provide a reliable base for accessories with a 1/4" UNC thread.

Three versions available, one system, multiple tripod series

The RRS tripod leg clamp is available in a total of three versions: for the RRS TVC Series 2, Series 3, and Series 4. Each version is precisely matched in its dimensions and inner diameter to the respective tripod series. The principle always remains the same, while the fit is perfectly tailored to the respective leg segment.

For you, this means that you can equip your RRS TVC tripods across multiple series with a uniform accessory concept and choose the TA-TLC clamp in the appropriate size each time. A system that can be expanded logically.
