TL Series Aluminum Boom Arm Stand with Adjustable Height and Portable Design for Studio Lighting

Unlock new creative angles without weighing down your kit. The HAFE TL Series Aluminum Boom Arm Stand is the lightweight, portable solution for photographers, videographers, and content creators who need precise overhead or side lighting on location. Precision-engineered from robust aluminum alloy, the TL Series delivers exceptional stability for lights, microphones, and small modifiers up to 2 kg—all while packing down incredibly small. Whether you're rigging a hair light in a cramped home studio or positioning a microphone over a podcast desk, the TL series gives you the reach, the strength, and the featherweight portability your workflow demands.

Traditional light stands force you into limited, upright positions. Boom arms are often heavy steel beasts that are difficult to transport. HAFE saw the gap: a super-compact, ultra-lightweight boom arm system that doesn't compromise on rigidity or working height. The TL Series collapses to nearly half the length of conventional booms, slips effortlessly into a backpack or carry-on, and deploys in seconds with secure twist-locks. It's the missing link between your on-camera speedlight and truly professional, directional lighting control—anywhere.

• Featherweight Agility: At just over 1.7 kg, you'll barely notice a TL stand in your gear bag. The aerospace-grade aluminum tubes deliver an unbeatable strength-to-weight ratio.
• Compact Travel Design: With a folded length as short as 660 mm (TL-1117), these stands fit where other booms can't. The inverted leg and column design is optimized for minimal storage footprint.
• Precision Load Control: Rated for a strict 2 kg at full horizontal extension, the counterbalance spring and lock mechanism keep your valuable equipment exactly where you set it—no drift, no sag.
• All-Terrain Stability: Wide-stance rubber feet grip studio floors and uneven outdoor surfaces alike, preventing slips and protecting delicate flooring.
• Crafted to Last: Hard-anodized tubes resist scratches and corrosion. Solid metal locking collars are built for years of daily, professional use without loosening.

• Portrait & Fashion: Achieve dramatic hair and rim lighting with a lightweight speedlight or compact LED panel precisely boomed overhead.
• Home Studio & Vlogging: Perfect for tight spaces; the compact footprint lets you float a key light or microphone above your desk without heavy C-stands cluttering the room.
• Macro & Product Photography: Side-mount a small flash to rake light across textures at extreme angles that a regular straight stand can never reach.
• Podcasting & Streaming: Get your broadcast microphone off the desk and into the ideal shock-mount position, completely eliminating surface vibrations.
• Location Cinematography: Pack two TL-1117s in a carry-on and travel to a documentary shoot with a full interview lighting kit.

The TL series isn't just a lighter version of a steel stand; it's a purpose-built tool designed for the modern, mobile creator who prioritizes speed and portability without sacrificing professional stability.
