What the thread found

  • A connector is needed to adapt from male 1/2" 13 threads to male 15/32 threads to attach Merlin weights to Zacuto rods.
  • Thread measurements for Merlin weight attachments may be approximately 12/32 rather than 15/32 depending on the specific model.
  • Direct contact with the manufacturing facility is recommended for precise thread specifications rather than relying on secondary sources.

Depends on

  • The exact thread size specification for Merlin weights is contested and may vary by model.
  • No specific adapter part was identified in the discussion.
  • Measurements were provided through indirect communication channels rather than direct factory verification.
