Our take on the Manfrotto 3/8 Inch Anti-Rotation Adapter with Arri Style Locating Pins

This is a small metal adapter that screws onto a 3/8-inch thread and adds Arri-style locating pins, so a mounted arm or accessory cannot twist loose. Manfrotto designed it for the 244 Mini and Micro friction arms, and the Arri pin pattern is the standard one used across video and cinema rigs. The steel plate is reversible, so you can run it as a plain 3/8-inch mount when the pins get in the way. It is a niche problem-solver: buy it if you fight spinning arms or need to mate Manfrotto arms to Arri-style hardware, not as a general-purpose mount.

Questions and answers

What does this adapter actually do?
It gives a 3/8-inch thread an Arri-style pin pattern, so a mounted arm or accessory locks in place instead of rotating. The pins do the anti-rotation work; the thread holds the load.
Which Manfrotto arms does it fit?
Manfrotto lists it for the 244 Mini and Micro friction arms. Any device with a 3/8-inch female thread and matching pin holes should also work.
Can I use it without the locating pins?
Yes. The steel plate is reversible, so you can flip it to get a plain 3/8-inch mount with no pins sticking out.
How much weight can it hold?
Manfrotto rates it for equipment up to 6.6 lb (3 kg). Stay under that, and check the rating of the arm and head it attaches to as well.
Is it Arri compatible?
It uses the Arri-style locating pin pattern common in video and cinema gear, so it mates with accessories built to that standard. It is not a full Arri rosette or clamp.
