NCT-PIGlite-CF4
4 Section Carbon Fiber Tripod
American-Made Field Tripod
The next evolution of the tried-and-true PIGlite-CF4. Proudly built in the USA and upgraded based on years of professional experience and user feedback.
Designed for backpackers, outdoorsmen, and end-users who don’t have the luxury to take a follow-up shot. Refusing to compromise between weight and durability, the NCT-PIGlite-CF4 carries forward everything that made the original field tripod a success and refines core features through precision manufacturing & engineering.
Stability on Demand
When the window of opportunity presents itself, there's no time to second guess your shooting position. The NCT-PIGlite-CF4 delivers benchrest stability the moment you need it. No sticks, bags, or extra leg, just a stable platform that keeps your reticle on target. Utilizing an overlapping pattern of Toray unidirectional (UD) carbon fiber, we’ve created the optimal balance of strength, rigidity, & weight reduction.
Tripod to Ball Head Fusion
Featuring a semi-permanent interlocking gear mount for the TH-1.4 ball head, this tripod is engineered as one seamless tripod system. No more worrying if your ball head pans loose in the field.
A Shooter's Companion
From glassing distant hillsides to building a stable position in a tight, confined space, the NCT-PIGlite-CF4 was built to reduce shooter variables and increase 1st round confidence.
NCT-PIGlite-CF4 Features:
