The Gobo Plate from Matthews is a versatile mounting adapter designed to interface with 2.5" grip heads and flat surfaces.

The plate features thoughtfully spaced holes for bolting on a wide variety of equipment. A standard 2.5" grip head slots into the groove at either end of the plates to securely lock down, and it mounts and releases smoothly thanks to the funnel-shaped receivers. Accessories with either 3/8" or 5/8" bolts are compatible. The plate provides flexibility in situations where space is at a premium by rigging it to a C-stand column to add an extra point for flags and scrims. It is an adaptable solution for mounting microphones above talent or cameras for tabletop shooting. Multiple scattered screw ports allow the Gobo Plate to easily integrate into wooden beams, apple boxes, or other surfaces and building materials. Matthews has conveniently machined guide notches along the side of the plate for accurate 45° mounting.
