Matthews Gobo Plate with Baby Pin
The Matthews Gobo Plate with Baby Pin (30026) is a rugged, professional-grade mounting solution designed for filmmakers, photographers, and grip professionals who need maximum flexibility on set. Manufactured by Matthews Studio Equipment, Inc., this innovative gobo plate expands the trusted Matthews Gobo Plate line by integrating the industry-standard 5/8" Baby Pina design Matthews originally pioneered decades ago.
Whether you're supporting a lighting fixture, attaching grip modifiers, or creating custom rigging at unconventional angles, this gobo plate allows you to add a Baby Pin exactly where it's needed. It mounts easily to 2.5" grip heads, bolts securely to cheese plates, or can be screwed or nailed directly into set walls, apple boxes, beams, or lumber.
Professional Versatility for Any Set
The thoughtfully engineered gobo plate bracket ensures stability and safety in demanding production environments. The Baby Pin automatically centers when used in a grip head as a drop-down, while the knurled pin surface keeps mounted equipment firmly in place.
