I have purchased an old Linhof Patentkopf III De Luxe Professional Pan Head III 003695 (Maybe 003614) or (003670) the sticker is very degraded. The tripod head needs a stem handle and insertion part to connect within the six-sided hole receptacle. Any suggestions? The double-sided toothed clamp disengages and tightens fully with the knob. The outer metal six-sided hole is a 7/16 inch or 1.11125 cm wall thickness of the metal that revolves around a solid piece of metal that has a matching six-sided hole through the opening completely through both sides. The opening measuring from parallel sides is 32/64 inch on the four parallel side widths - 1.27 cm, and 35/64 on the longer measurement two parallel side holes . The match-up of the inner and outer metal hole shift off-axis from each other until manipulating a line up of the six sided hole on both outer and inner. The tripod head weighs 3 1/2 to 4 pounds - 1.587573 kg to 1.814369 kg. The whole outer sideways measurement parameter straight line through the depth of the metal-toothed column is 1 inch 11/16 - .4.28625 cm. I have a Kardan Color Triplex 8x10 with an extra extended monorail and extended bellows probably around 1964 / 1965 model, as well as a prototype first edition with the turn knuckles of a second Linhof Kardan Color Triplex 8x10 with an extended long monorail and bellows arriving in a few weeks. Is this head sufficient for the weight of a Kardan Color Triplex extended monorail with larger lenses on a Linhof Professional R Doppel Rohr Stativ 003323 mit Kurbelsäule Heavy Duty Pro 3, or possibly sufficient to carry the weight of a Linhof Kardan Bi 5x7 with extended long monorail with larger lenses? - These are pretty weighty items, especially with larger lenses added. So this Linhof tripod head seemed a good match???., - Thanks - Brad
