SKU: LIB-PH-8B(L)

Libec Extendable pan handle for LX10 Head, RHP75 and RHP85 for Left Hand

R 2,387.40
Tax included Shipping calculated at checkout.


The official, factory-designated left-handed extendable pan handle for the Libec LX10, RHP75, and RHP85 fluid heads is the Libec PH-8B(L) (also sold under the SKU PH-8BL).

While the standard right-handed version (PH-8B) is bent specifically to clear the camera body when mounted on the right, the PH-8B(L) features a mirrored mechanical angle. This curve allows it to clear the left side of your camera rig, providing the proper clearance for your arm and hand without pressing against the camera chassis, cables, or media slots.

Key Performance & Physical Features

  • Telescopic Mechanical Extension: The handle features a twist-lock collar system that allows you to continuously adjust the length of the pan bar from 40.5 cm to 56.0 cm (16.0" to 22.0").

  • Leverage Optimization: Extending the handle increases your physical leverage. This is critical for managing heavier broadcast setups near the maximum payload of the LX10 (35 lbs) or RHP85 (55 lbs), enabling smooth movements when operating at the long end of a telephoto lens.

  • Dual-Handle Setup Ready: This left-handed bar is most commonly used alongside the right-handed PH-8B to build a dual-pan bar studio configuration. This setup allows you to mount remote zoom demands on one handle and focus demands on the other.

  • Heavy-Duty Rosette Alignment: Features a matching mechanical steel rosette clamp designed to mesh perfectly with the teeth on the left side of the LX10, RHP75, and RHP85 head structures. This metal-on-metal design locks tightly, eliminating play or slipping even under high vertical torque.

Technical Specifications Matrix:

Parameter Libec PH-8B(L) Factory Specifications
Official Catalog SKU PH-8B(L) or PH-8BL
Adjustable Extension Range 40.5 cm to 56.0 cm (16.0" to 22.0")
Orientation Configuration Left-Hand Rosette Side Mounting
Primary Material High-Strength Structural Aluminum Alloy
Grip Architecture Non-slip, Ergonomic Rubber Studio Sleeve
Native Head Compatibility LX10, LX10M, RHP75, RHP85

💡 Installation Note: When attaching the PH-8B(L) to the left rosette of your fluid head, ensure the mechanical teeth are fully meshed before tightening the large locking knob. Forcing the knob down while the teeth are misaligned can strip the rosette pattern, which can cause the handle to slip during quick panning or tilting movements.
