Our new 10′ PortaRail soft case kit is now available for pre-order. Sections are 40″ (1 meter) long and can be screwed together seamlessly via the threaded connectors. These rails are constructed from high grade 6061 aluminum which is much stronger than the architectural aluminum that is sometimes used for similar applications. The stronger material provides much more rigidity which means a more solid system with very little flex. At 80″ the camera slider rails have less than 1/8″ of flex with a 40 pound load placed at the center. Each piece goes through a 6 step process to make them straight enough and round enough for precision camera movement. This kit includes 6 sections providing 10′ of useable track and a soft case to easily transport the rails. The photo above is the prototype and the production version will be slightly different than pictured. This product can also be used with many other suspended or ground-rail systems that work with a similar OD. The outside diameter is 1.65″ (41.9mm). |
