SECO Thumb-Release Mini Bipod *New Anti-Crush Head
The SECO Thumb-Release Mini Bipod with Anti-Crush Head is a compact bipod designed for surveyors, engineers, and construction layout professionals using robotic total stations and GNSS systems. Built on the same design as SECO’s full-size bipods, this shorter version is intended for use with compact pole setups where a full-height bipod is not practical.
The updated anti-crush head design helps reduce the risk of damaging carbon fiber range and prism poles during setup, making it a practical choice for crews working with lightweight or telescopic poles. For applications that require mobility, tighter setups, or shorter pole heights, this mini bipod provides stable support without the bulk of a full-size model. It is also commonly selected by crews traveling between job sites or working overseas where a more compact, transport-friendly setup is preferred.
