That was impressive. No muss, no fuss, right to the point, no waste of time. Beautifully cut, and the music was perfect to breathe confidence into the anxiety I feel undertaking a project like this. Congrats!
Thanks greatly for this. I have two leg locks to fit on a Manfrotto 718SHB, which I think is the exact tripod shown in your video. So this is an excellent video for me -- Manfrotto provide no instructions at all!
Hello, The video is very nicely explained. can you please provide the links for parts available too? it can be any store in US or online. that really helps. thanks a lot
Sorry, but this replacement vid is more complicated than it seems. More than likely when you try to remove leg locks, especially these plastic ones, they too will break. So in order to replace one leg lock,, you will have to replace all three. That comes to about $75. I followed the exact directions and each time I tried to remove the pin, the leg lock would crack. So the real price of this is much higher. I guess if you dont mind spending $75 to replace all the locks, then it is worth it. If one has cracked it is likely others will crack as well. And it also seems that if one has already cracked, others are probably ready to go too. May be just time to buy a new one with metal locks.
Great video Brandon. I have a slik tripod that has a similar mechanism and I could not figure out how to disassemble the legs. With this video, I was able to easily clean my tripod. I could not find this information anywhere on the net. Many thank!
I have a Slik Pro 340QF, one of the tabs that locks the legs broke off. Do ya'll carry parts for this item? I could just knock the lock pin out and replace it without disassembling the entire thing correct?
Great video; unfortunately Spartan Photo didn't have the part for my wife's Manfrotto 728B! I had to order it from England. Some people are 3D printing them and offering the clasps on eBay, but I needed the shim as well as the leg collar, so I bought the package with all the necessary parts. I sure appreciate this instructional video.
My cheap but sturdy tripod from Amazon lost the foot cap which let the smallest extension collapse into the leg. This video helped me fix it. Worth it not to order a replacement! Thank you!
hi thankyou for the video. its so helpful. But I cannot find a store to buy a leg lock for my velbon cx460 tripod. just one leg lock is broken. i wanted to repair it. can you tell me wherr I can find the part. i searched in Amazon and ebay too. no luck..
@@spartanphotocenter dang thank you very much for responding to me. I honestly appreciate that I may look into having someone possibly 3d print the part.
i have this exact tripod and need to replace all leg locks. I can't find the products on your site, can you please add a link to the item i need to buy? Thanks.
Thanks a ton. The Benro service center guy did not have a replacement and i needed one on urgent basis, so instead i borrowed a damaged piece from him hoping i could swap the locks. Came across this video and voila 5 mins is all it took and my tripod is as good as new. I'll now return the borrowed piece. Thanks for a simple and easy solution.
This is a good video on how to replace the manfrotto clamps. Unfortunately for my tripod (the 714B) the cost of the four clamps I need exceed the cost of a new tripod!

Thanks for the feedback!
Trying to figure out where to get replacement leg locks for my Oben CT-3535 5 Section Carbon Fiber Tripod. Any ideas?
Where did you get the leg locks? I have the same looking one displayed with the 4 shims. For the life of me I can. Ot find them anywhere.

Where can I get leg these locks?
Sadly, they are no longer available.
THANKS so much. I have a Vortex tripod, and the leg lock came off. There were enough hints in this video to enable me to put it all back together.
I can't find any replacement leg locks to put on a Vivitar V100

Does anyone know where to get Blacks tripod parts? My Blacks BX45 has a broken clamp and I can’t find replacement parts anywhere.

Thank you!!! A couple broke on mine and more are also breaking; it’s older & was a gift, but it’s an otherwise nice tripod so I don’t wanna toss it!
Where do I buy the new locks for Benro tripods?
Also would like to know...
Benro tripods are distributed by the MAC group - They may have the parts, but we do not carry the Benro brand.
