RAT Alto stand in black

Introducing the RAT Alto stand in black

The RATstands Alto Stand delivers exceptional reach, offering a height range unmatched by any other model in its class. It can sit low enough for a young cellist yet extend high enough for a singer working on a riser, covering situations where most stands fall short.

Its slim footprint also suits tight platforms, ensuring players retain full movement without sacrificing stability.

When not in use, multiple stands nest neatly together for compact, efficient storage.

Excellent height range

The Alto Stand supports a wider span of playing positions than comparable stands, adapting confidently from seated string work to elevated choral use. It can be placed directly on the ground when riser space is limited, giving ensembles a practical option in busy or restricted staging environments.

Easy height adjustment

The friction-locking system holds the tray firmly at the chosen height and angle without the need for thumb screws or levers. This keeps adjustments smooth and intuitive, ideal for teaching rooms and ensemble rehearsals where stands are continually repositioned.

Sturdy and strong

The injection-moulded tray is designed to withstand demanding use. It will flex and return to shape if knocked, offering long-term durability in busy educational or performance settings. The aluminium stem adds rigidity without adding unnecessary weight, minimising sway and supporting heavier folders with ease.

Compact storage

The Alto Stand stores efficiently in places where traditional stands struggle, including beneath tables and desks. Its interlocking base allows multiple units to nest closely together, reducing the footprint needed for bulk storage. An optional Alto Stand Trolley is available and can transport up to 16 stands for convenient movement between rooms or venues.
