I don't know the exact weight but I have hung a heavy 10'x20' green screen over mine with no problem.

I can't say how much exact weight this would hold but I am certain it will hold a muslin backdrop. I have a roll of paper on mine that I know outweighs a large backdrop piece of muslin. As long as you are not talking about a roll of muslin. It might very well hold a roll of muslin as well, though. It's pretty sturdy.

I honestly wouldn't put more than three pounds on the vinyl hanger. I have a large star on it and it's perfect. Holds it right in place. You don't want to put 10 pounds on it as it will pull your vinyl siding down.

James it maxes out at 10ft wide. I have a 10x24 ft green screen. It will accommodate your banner in terms of weight, but if it's wider than 10ft you will have issues.. This is not a cheap stand in my humble opinion. I love it. Hope this helps you.

The manufacturer does not specify how much weight it can hold. Installed correctly each linecan be utilized. You should assume lighter weighted linens are best.

Not much!!! In it's full width it struggles to hold a 10 X 20 muslin fabric. In its partial width its more and it's a lot more stable.

It's holding several framed 8x10s with no trouble. I also have it holding planter plates to the bottom of planters to keep water from spilling over. Tried lifting largest frame for you but it doesn't want to come off the wall so easily. I would estimate it to be between 3 and 4 pounds. Hope this is of some help to you.

I contacted SILK. They say it can hold 19.8 pounds. Furthermore they say the listed support weight in the manual, 13.2 lbs, is a typo.

I don't use it with muslin but I can say it does hold the weight, I have a roll of white vinyl up there that is pretty heavy and just like another comment, it does "get away from you". It will unroll all the way once it is started. I have a plastic ring that I hook through one of the links and to jam it at the top, have to use a ladder. The PVC pipe worked really well to hold it, just hit it with the staple gun then smoothed it with some wide tape.

This is a great kit I've used it for several shoots very high quality holds heavy muslin backdrops with no problem I've also used an 8' wide roll of seamless with no problems

I haven't put that much weight on it, but if not in the wind and you use sand bags, I suspect it would hold the weight. It also depends on how wide the blankets are. Most of the strength is near each stand and less strength is in the middle of the cross piece. This is a light duty background stand. You may want to consider a regular duty background stand.

Thank you for your inquiry. This can only accommodate up to a 22 inch screen. It can't hold anything bigger. Please let us know if we can be of further assistance.

The max height is 10 ft and the min height is probably around 4ft. You can make it any height you want. This is a good stand but it is one that I leave up in my studio and never break it down to travel because of how the rail is put together. This is the sturdiest backdrop stand I own and I would rate it very high.

I bought this stand and it's not as sturdy as I thought it would be. The more I extend it vertically the less stable it becomes. It would probably not suppor more than 6-7 pounds of heavy muslin. If you are indoor it would probably hold. If you are outside in the elements (wind) it may not.

I've used several different backdrops for this particular stand and they have all worked well. However, a few of the backdrops have been heavy enough to make the stand a bit unsteady, otherwise I have encountered no other issues of incompatibility.

I do not know the maximum weight but I do not think it would safely hold a heavy camera. We do a lot of photography also and I would not trust it for that. My husband is using this for a spotting scope while hunting and that is about the most I would trust it on.

Max weight? I'm not sure but it is strong. It shoukd hold yours easily. I use a cannon camcorder and its no problem. Tighen the 3 legs on bottom real tight and it should hold almost any camera.
