Manfrotto 241FB Pump Cup Flat Base - Black

The Manfrotto 241FB Pump Cup with Flat Base is a purpose-built mounting accessory for photographers and videographers who need to attach lightweight equipment to smooth, flat surfaces. The pump-action suction mechanism creates a strong vacuum seal without requiring tools, adhesives, or permanent fixtures — simply position the 60mm disc on a clean surface, pump to engage, and mount your gear via the 3/8-inch screw on top. This makes it particularly handy for mounting cameras on car hoods, windows, tabletops, or other smooth panels where traditional tripods or clamps won't work.

Built in Italy, the 241FB weighs 1.37 lbs and is compact enough to slip into a camera bag without adding significant bulk. It's designed to support 35mm SLRs, compact digital cameras, and lightweight video cameras. While the suction cup holds firmly on appropriate surfaces, users should be aware that porous, dusty, or textured materials will compromise the seal. For heavier rigs or situations requiring angle adjustments, you'll want to pair the 241FB with a compatible ball head or tilt adapter, as the pump cup itself provides a fixed mounting point.
