The Markins Tripod Base TB-30 plate gives your Gitzo Mountaineer Series 3 tripods additional stability and vibration dampening.

It is mounted between the ball head and the tripod base, eliminating the central column for closer to the ground shots and for further reducing tripod weight.

TB-30 doesn't fit with GT3531, GT3541 & GT3541L purchased after Apr. 2012. TH-300 will fit fine.

The TB-20 and TB-30's are not only very useful, they also add a personal touch to your tripod.

The TB-30 fits the Gitzo Mountaineer tripods, like the G1320, G1326 and G1327 tripods.

It also fits the 6X Gitzo GT3530, GT3540, GT3540L and GT3531+GT3541+GT3541L (if bought before Arpil 2012)

It does not fit the G1325 or G1348, nor the new GT3530S and GT3530LSV Systematic tripods that come with a flat top, without center column.

The Markins TB-30 base plate is machined in duraluminum, very nicely finished and hard anodized.

Comes with stem bolt included and stem, a threaded hollow tube and a spacer, to allow use of the Gitzo hook. Available in black color

For GT 6X tripods you need to remove the rubber O-ring of the tripod and use the spacer on the Gitzo hook and tube.
