FAQs
Will this work with my OCF softbox?
No, this grid is specifically designed for the standard Profoto Softbox line and is not compatible with the OCF, RFi, or Clic ranges.
What is the beam angle of this grid?
This grid provides a 50-degree beam spread, which helps narrow the light and increase control.
How do I store the grid?
The grid should be folded gently and stored inside the included labeled soft pouch when not in use to maintain its shape.
Does the grid affect the color temperature of the light?
No, the fabric is neutral and will not impact the color temperature of your light source.
Is the grid machine washable?
It is not recommended to machine wash the grid. Use a dry, soft brush to remove dust or a slightly damp cloth if cleaning is necessary.
Troubleshooting
The grid does not attach to my softbox.
Verify that your softbox model belongs to the standard Profoto Softbox series. It will not fit RFi, OCF, or Clic series modifiers.
The grid looks saggy or uneven.
Ensure that the hook-and-loop fasteners are aligned correctly around the entire perimeter of the softbox recess and pulled taut.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure your softbox is fully assembled and mounted on the light head. Press the hook-and-loop edges of the grid into the recessed front edge of the Profoto 1x6 softbox, ensuring a taut fit across the entire surface. This product is compatible only with the standard Profoto Softbox line; attempting to force it onto RFi, OCF, or Clic systems will result in a poor fit. To care for your grid, keep it away from sharp objects that might snag the fabric. When not in use, fold it carefully along its natural lines and store it in the provided soft pouch to prevent dust accumulation and fabric deformation.
