Really Right Stuff - Anvil-30 ARC Ball Head

USA Made. RRS-Lock System. 35 ft-lb Capacity. Precision Engineering.

The Really Right Stuff Anvil-30 ARC Ball Head is a premium, American-made ball head engineered for demanding field applications where strength, precision, and reliability are non-negotiable. With a 35 ft-lb load capacity, patent-pending dual lever-release clamp, RRS-Lock safety-stop system, 30mm ball diameter, and construction from solid aircraft aluminum and stainless steel — the Anvil-30 ARC delivers complete control over your gear in a stronger, lighter, faster package than anything else on the market.

Overview

The Anvil-30's RRS-Lock System is its defining innovation — a unique safety-stop feature built into both the mounting rail and quick-release clamp that adds multiple hard-stop positions along the rail while retaining smooth edges and corners for maximum ergonomics and a snag-free interface. A 5mm steel pin engages 5.5mm holes in the rail to prevent unintentional repositioning when locked — supplementing the traditional friction-based clamping mechanism for double-secured positioning. The patent-pending dual lever-release clamp provides fast, easy mounting across RRS Dovetail and Picatinny sections, and the adjustable clamp jaw accommodates non-spec Arca-type rails for broad compatibility.
