Some may not need the strength, but I'm putting this under my gimbal to mount to my galaxy stabilizer arm. The galaxy arm has a 16mm post which fits this adapter perfectly.
For clarity, the 1/4-20 hole on the Zhiyum Crane 3 Lab gimbal isn't very deep. A tripod's 1/4-20 post holds a lot of weight because the plate has a wide contact with the camera and so the post can't bend to the side. So to make this adapter work, I put 1/4-20 disks and a washer to, create a wider contact surface with the gimbal and protect the adapter's 1/4-20 post from bending - need to be sure there is no bare post showing.
I previously tried the Aluminium Kupos adapter of the same design, and the aluminium post bent to the side. In fairness I didn't have the 1/4-20 disks in place so if I had, perhaps it would have been okay.
At any rate, steel is better for me. This adapter is working well. Putting my heavy gimbal, camera, monitor, follow focus, and batteries, which together are quite heavy, onto the galaxy stabilizer arm is working perfectly. It saves my arms so I can go shoot for hours.

Solid.
I purchased this to add to my C-stand boom arm in order to adapt it for an overhead mount. The piece feels heavy, sturdy and solid. I'll be attaching a quick release Manfrotto head to it once it arrives. I feel confident my expensive camera will be well mounted.
