FAQs

What tripods are these feet compatible with?

These feet are dedicated for use with Manfrotto 055XPROB, 055CX3, and 055CXPRO3 tripods.

How do I switch between spiked and rubber feet?

Simply twist the outer rubber sleeve. Rotating it one way extends the spike, and rotating it the other way retracts the spike to reveal the rubber foot.

Are these feet suitable for indoor use?

Yes, the retractable rubber foot is designed for use on hard surfaces indoors to prevent slipping. The spikes should be retracted when used indoors to avoid scratching floors.

What is the material of the spike?

The spike is made from anodized aluminum, which is highly resistant to corrosion.

Does this product come with a tool for installation?

Yes, a dedicated fitting tool is supplied with the set of 3 feet to aid in secure installation.

How much do these feet weigh?

The set of 3 feet weighs approximately 195 grams.

Can I use these feet on other Manfrotto tripod models?

These feet are specifically designed for the Manfrotto 055 series. Compatibility with other models is not guaranteed and may require checking specific attachment thread sizes, though they are not officially supported.

Troubleshooting

Feet do not screw on securely.

Verify that your tripod model is one of the compatible Manfrotto 055 series tripods (055XPROB/CX3/CXPRO3). Ensure no debris is present in the tripod leg threads.

Rubber foot cover is difficult to retract or extend.

Check for dirt or debris around the mechanism. Clean the area gently with a damp cloth. Ensure the feet are properly attached to the tripod legs.

Spikes are not gripping well on soft ground.

Ensure the spikes are fully extended and digging sufficiently into the surface. Make sure the tripod is stable and not overloaded for the conditions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility:

These feet are specifically designed for Manfrotto tripods including the 055XPROB, 055CX3, and 055CXPRO3 models. Ensure your tripod model is listed before purchase.
