Detailed Description

Bridge Flex-Connect Trays with Technical Ball Arms

Photographers who prefer the lightweight, quick-release base of a SeaLife Flex-Connect tray can now integrate heavy-duty 1” ball arm setups. The SL9957 Adapter clicks directly into the tray's mounting port, instantly providing a 1” (25mm) ball joint ready to accept standard ball clamps and technical extension arms.

Unrestricted 360-Degree Lighting Freedom

Once attached to a 1” ball clamp, this adapter gives you 360 degrees of rotational and tilt freedom. Position wide video lights high and wide to prevent backscatter in murky water, or fold light arms flush against the housing for streamlined travel during dive swim-throughs.

Durable & Marine-Grade Build

Machined from high-strength anodized aluminum, the adapter withstands heavy loads and harsh saltwater exposure. The integrated rubber friction ring ensures clamp plates hold tight under pressure, preventing heavy light heads from drooping mid-dive.

Note: Authorized Canadian distributor product. Includes full Canadian warranty support and local service.
