What is standard thread pitch for a mic stand?
« on: April 18, 2005, 11:16:03 AM »
I know that the standard mic stand is 5/8'' but what is the threading pitch? I got a brand new manfrotto/bogen stand and need to adapt it to the correct size and threading

I have a friend who work at a nuts and bolt factory but the finest threading they do is 20. so where can I find a adapter that will work to convert the manfrotto top?

Check the Archive | Mics & Setup forum for a post on mic stands, including adapters required for the conversion, and then check the online retailers thread in the Archive forum.

What do you mean, an African or European mic stand?

Thread pitch is a weird one. 5/8" x 27 for American mics. Good luck.
