An internal-fit thread adaptor that converts a 3/8″ female stand thread to a 5/8″ male, so US-threaded mic clips and shockmounts will sit on a European stand. The internal design sits flush inside the thread rather than standing proud, with coin slots cut into the face so you can back it out with a screwdriver or a coin when you need the original thread back.

Note
This is the internal, coin-slot version. A knurled-ring version of the same 3/8″ to 5/8″ conversion is available as STAN80 if you would rather remove it by hand. Check which way round you need the conversion before ordering, as the reverse 5/8″ to 3/8″ adaptor is a different part.
