New rig accessory streamlines cables, reduces snags and disconnects

Hollywood, CA - Redrock Micro, the recognized leader in affordable professional-quality cinema accessories, announced today the immediate availability of microTies, the perfect accessory for managing all cables on video camera or HDSLR rigs. microTies attach to your rig to enable camera operators and ACs control of all types of cables on their rigs for safety, convenience, and professionalism.

Simple and Effective Cable Management on Video or HDSLR Rigs
microTies can be used on any standard 15mm rod and has inside and outside channels for wrangling three or more cables. microTies work with almost all cables (video, audio, power, data) and reduces the chance of snags, accidental disconnects or cable fatigue due to bending or repeated insertions. The microTie also has an added special channel to hold a grease pencil for a follow focus.

microTies are made of ultra lightweight aerospace composites that add virtually no weight and do not scratch other surfaces. microTies can be quickly attached, repositioned, and removed to speed rig changes.

Redrock's microTies are sold in packs of three. Photo provided by Redrock Micro. Click for a bigger picture!
