K&M Stands 217 Thread Adapter

Reliable Thread Conversion for Audio and AV Equipment
The K&M 217 Thread Adapter is a rugged, zinc-plated connector designed to convert thread sizes between audio and video accessories with absolute precision. With a 3/8" female thread on one end and a 5/8"-27 male thread on the other, this compact adapter allows users to bridge mounting standards across U.S. and European gear with minimal effort. It's the ideal solution for making sure your microphone clips, booms, AV accessories, or support arms fit securely every time.

Compatible With Microphone Stands and More
Whether you're adapting a microphone clip, tablet holder, or camera accessory to fit an unfamiliar stand, the 217 adapter delivers compatibility without compromise. It’s a trusted tool for performers, engineers, AV installers, and content creators who work with mixed-thread gear in changing setups. If you're managing portable rigs or rental inventory, having one of these on hand can save time and frustration during live production or studio prep.

Zinc Plating Offers Long-Term Durability
Constructed from solid zinc-plated metal, the adapter is built to withstand repeated tightening, transport, and exposure to demanding environments. The plating not only resists corrosion but ensures the threads remain clean and smooth over time, preventing wear and binding even with frequent swaps between equipment. It’s a long-lasting, low-maintenance adapter designed for heavy-duty use.

Precision Threading for a Snug, Secure Fit
Loose fittings and wobbly connections are unacceptable in professional audio and video applications. That’s why the 217 adapter uses precisely machined threads to ensure every piece of gear mounts snugly. The accurate sizing also prevents cross-threading or misalignment, giving users confidence during fast-paced setups or critical broadcast environments.

Streamlined Setup With Minimal Bulk
Its small footprint means the 217 adapter won’t add bulk to your gear bag. Despite its compact form, it delivers significant versatility—solving multiple mounting issues with a single tool. This makes it a smart addition to any utility case, mic kit, or field recording setup where thread mismatches might slow down your workflow.
