Farpoint · UBM Accessory
The standard 3/8-16 post that connects the Farpoint UBM to a photo tripod.
The 3/8-16 Tripod Mounting Post is the standard interface between the Farpoint UBM and a photo tripod. The 3/8-16 thread is the universal large photo-tripod thread used by virtually every professional and astronomy-grade tripod. The UBM ships with one of these posts — buy this to replace a lost or damaged post, or to keep a spare on a second tripod for fast moves between mounts.

Frequently Asked Questions
Doesn't the UBM already come with a post?
Yes — the UBM ships with one 3/8-16 post. Buy this only as a replacement or to keep a spare on a second tripod so you can move the mount without re-threading.
Which thread do I need?
3/8-16 is the standard photo-tripod thread and fits almost all photo tripods. For surveyor's tripods choose 5/8-11, and for European/metric tripods choose M10. Confirm your tripod's thread first; email support@cxbastro.com if unsure.
