The Matthews Baby Plate is a compact mounting accessory used to adapt flat surfaces for standard baby‑pin hardware. It features a 3" square steel plate with an integrated 5/8" pin, allowing lighting fixtures, grip accessories, or small rigs to be mounted where a traditional stand or clamp is not practical. The low‑profile design makes it suitable for floor mounts, wall placements, or custom scenic builds where hardware needs to remain unobtrusive. Finished in black to reduce reflections, the adapter is commonly used in studio, film, and staging environments that require secure, repeatable mounting points for lightweight equipment.
