SeaLife Flex-Connect Trays & Arms — Build Your Rig in Seconds
Flex-Connect is SeaLife's mounting ecosystem, introduced alongside Sea Dragon lighting in 2013 — trays, grips, arms, and adapters that click together without tools, letting you transform a compact single-camera setup into a full multi-light rig (and back again for cleaning or travel) in seconds.
At DiveCatalog.com, we carry the current Flex-Connect tray and arm lineup as an authorized SeaLife dealer.
The Flex-Connect Range
Trays — Single, Micro, and Ultra Dual
The Single Tray mounts a light directly or adds a Flex-Connect Grip or Flex Arm for increased control and comfort, attaching to any camera with a standard 1/4-20 tripod mount. The Micro Tray is sized for ultra-compact cameras, including GoPro, keeping your overall setup minimal while still allowing lights and grips to be added with a click. The Ultra Dual Tray uses a bow-shaped design ideal for the SeaLife SportDiver and other wide camera housings, mounting two lights simultaneously to double brightness and reduce backscatter and shadowing — the tray can be oriented with grips and lights in front of or behind the housing, and two additional 1/4-20 female threads underneath support lens docks or other accessories.
Flex Arm — Direct Light Where You Need It
Each Flex Arm has 100° of bending motion and adds 7 inches of length, allowing creative lighting positioning, easier aiming, and reduced backscatter by moving the light farther from the camera lens. Clicks directly into a tray, grip, cold shoe adapter, or the top of another Flex Arm — up to two arms per side. Built from fiber-reinforced polycarbonate with stainless steel hardware for durability.
Y-S Adapter — Universal Compatibility
Connects any underwater light or flash using a Y-S mount to Flex-Connect grips, trays, arms, and cold shoe mounts — removing compatibility guesswork when mixing brands or accessories within a single rig.
Building Your Rig
Start with a tray sized to your camera (Single for standard cameras, Micro for action cameras, Ultra Dual for SportDiver and wide housings). Add a grip for stability, then a Flex Arm for each light to position it away from the lens axis — reducing backscatter from suspended particles directly in front of the camera. Every connection point uses the same click-in mechanism, so reconfiguring between dives takes seconds rather than tools and time.

Frequently Asked Questions — Flex-Connect Trays & Arms
Which tray do I need for my camera?
Match the tray to your camera type: the Micro Tray for ultra-compact cameras and GoPro, the Single Tray for standard cameras like the SeaLife Micro series, and the Ultra Dual Tray for the SportDiver smartphone housing or other wide camera bodies.
How many Flex Arms can I add?
Up to two arms can be stacked per side, each adding 7 inches of length and 100° of bending motion — giving you significant reach and positioning flexibility for each light.
Is Flex-Connect compatible with non-SeaLife lights?
The Y-S Adapter specifically bridges Y-S mount lights and flashes (a common industry standard) to the Flex-Connect system, so many third-party lights can integrate into a Flex-Connect rig with the right adapter.
