Libec 2stage lightweight carbon tripod with 75mm bowl

R 13,596.45
Tax included Shipping calculated at checkout.

The hardware configuration that completely defines a 2-stage lightweight carbon fiber tripod with a 75mm bowl is the premium Libec RT20C (often sold as part of the advanced Libec HS-C series or NX series system packages).

This tripod is specially engineered for run-and-gun documentarians, news stringers, and mobile mirrorless/cinema operators who require elite structural rigidity but cannot afford to haul heavy production packages over long distances.

1. Advanced Torsional Rigidity Engineering

Historically, ultra-lightweight carbon sticks had a major flaw: they flexed horizontally under panning pressure. Libec solved this with the RT20C:

  • Widened Upper Piping: The outer physical diameter of the top-stage dual carbon fiber tubes is noticeably widened. This architectural shift massively boosts torsional rigidity, completely neutralizing the annoying "pan backlash" (the subtle horizontal spring-back wobble) when an operator abruptly stops a tracking sweep.

  • Massive Power-to-Weight Core: The standalone legs weigh an incredibly light 1.5 kg (3.3 lbs), yet their reinforced design allows them to reliably anchor massive camera setups up to 35 kg (77 lbs).

2. Industry Standard 75mm Leveling Bowl

  • Universal Fluid Head Support: The cast aluminum apex crown features a precision-machined 75mm leveling bowl designed for professional, lightweight video heads (such as Libec’s continuous perfect-counterbalance H15, H25, H35, or NH30 series, alongside popular third-party systems from Sachtler, Manfrotto, and Miller).

  • Rapid Horizon Correction: The 75mm diameter offers a broad surface area for securing tight friction locking handles, letting you snap a perfect horizon level in seconds on rough outdoor terrain.

3. Two-Stage Field Deployment

  • Cine-Style Quick Levers: Height adjustments across the 2-stage (3-section) legs are locked down using low-profile, ergonomic mechanical flip levers. They lock securely with minimal physical effort, meaning you can drop or raise your height configuration instantly without worrying about the legs slipping or creeping downward under load.

  • Low-Angle Versatility: Because it doesn't utilize a rigid center column, the legs can splay open exceptionally wide. When deployed with its matching floor spreader, it operates within an expansive height range extending from a low-profile perspective of 37.0 cm (14.6") up to a maximum working height of 154.0 cm (60.6").

Core Technical Specifications:

Performance Parameter Libec RT20C Standalone Carbon Legs Specs
Official Model Profile Libec RT20C
Primary Material Build High-Modulus Aerospace Carbon Fiber Composites
Maximum Standalone Payload 35.0 kg / 77.0 lbs
Native Head Interface 75mm Leveling Bowl Base
Leg Stage / Section Layout 2-Stage / 3-Section Support Framework
Height Operating Range 37.0 cm to 154.0 cm / 14.6" to 60.6" (with ground spreader)
Net Hardware Weight 1.5 kg / 3.3 lbs (Legs only—extraordinarily light)
Foot Anchor Profile Built-in Dual Metal Spikes for Exterior Terrains

Production Setup Note: The RT20C ships as standalone "bare sticks" from the factory. To anchor the tripod footprint securely on flat indoor surfaces, pair it with the ultra-lightweight Libec SP-1B Ground Spreader or add the FP-1B Snap-on Rubber Feet. For uneven outdoor field work, pair it with the BR-2B Mid-Level Telescopic Spreader to keep the legs locked tightly in place.
