Nano Pro Fluid Tripod Head

The Foundation of a Hunter's Lightweight Glassing System

Built for Backcountry Glassing

The Nano Pro Fluid Head was designed as the foundation of a lightweight glassing system — not as a standalone accessory. At just 9 ounces, it delivers true fluid head performance for hunters who spend long days behind the glass and demand smooth, controlled movement without unnecessary weight.

Despite its ultralight construction, the Nano Pro confidently supports full-size spotting scopes, binoculars, and optics setups commonly used in western big game hunting. This balance of weight and performance allows hunters to stay steady, patient, and effective in the field — especially during extended glassing sessions.

Why a Fluid Head Matters

Fluid heads use a hydraulic system that provides smooth panning and controlled tilt, making it easier to scan terrain, track animals, and glass comfortably for long periods. Compared to ball or pan heads, a true fluid head reduces fatigue and improves stability — especially when paired with modern optics.

Most fluid heads capable of this level of control weigh over a pound. The Nano Pro delivers the same smooth performance at a fraction of the weight, without relying on compromises common in ultralight pan or ball head designs.

Purpose-Built, No Excess

At MTN HNTR, we focus on feature sets that matter in the field. The Nano Pro reflects this approach: simple, reliable, and intentionally designed for hunters who prioritize performance over unnecessary complexity.

A two-axis control system places the horizontal panning knob on the left side and the tilt control on the front, keeping adjustments intuitive and accessible. The adjustable lightweight handle allows fine control while maintaining a compact, packable profile.

Designed to Work as a System

The Nano Pro Fluid Head is engineered to pair seamlessly with our Carbon Fiber MTN SS and Swift TS tripods. Together, they form a balanced lightweight system that optimizes stability, packability, and ease of use — which is why most hunters choose the Nano Pro as part of a complete tripod kit.

While the Nano Pro is compatible with nearly any tripod via its 3/8" thread and included 1/4"-20 adapter, it performs best when matched with tripods designed around its size, weight, and intended use.

For hunters who want a proven setup without guesswork, our tripod kits combine the Nano Pro Fluid Head with the right tripod for the job.
