A knurled thread adaptor that converts a 5/8″ female thread down to a 3/8″ male, letting a European 3/8″ mic clip or shockmount mount onto a US-threaded 5/8″ stand. The knurled external ring means you can fit and remove it by hand without tools, which is what you want when you are turning a stage round between acts.

Note
Check the direction carefully. This one goes 5/8″ female to 3/8″ male, which is the opposite of the far more common STAN80 and STAN81 adaptors. Getting it the wrong way round is the single most common ordering mistake on these parts.
