Baby pins...

I need to mount a small 250w hair light with a baby pin hole onto the grip arm of a c-stand. http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/243787-REG/Avenger_E650_E650_Baby_5_8_Pin.html - is this all I'll need?

A lot of guys use a piece of tubing with a 5/8" outside diameter for this, since it's much cheaper (and lighter) when you have a whole bunch of them. But either of those products will work.

I just grab a superclamp baby pin, since I have a sack of those. Even a piece of 3/8 plumbing pipe will work, if you can find it (1/2" is too thick - the size is the ID, not OD).

Can you post a link to a superclamp baby pin? There's all kinds of stuff out there and I don't know what I'm looking at :laugh:

There's all kinds of them. Baby pin with the superclamp hex end, they'll fit in a grip head just fine thought].

what about attaching it to the end of the grip arm?
