Material advantage of stainless steel AISI 316 (A4)

AISI 316 stainless steel (also known as A4 or V4A) contains molybdenum and therefore offers significantly higher corrosion resistance than standard stainless steel. Since the entire end cap is made of AISI 316, it offers maximum durability for:

• Continuous saltwater contact
• Aggressive marine environments
• Long-term outdoor applications without maintenance
• Professional boat and yacht equipment
• Areas subject to mechanical stress

Tensionable and height-adjustable - Maximum flexibility

With adjusting sleeve: Unlike simple height-adjustable end caps, this version has an adjusting sleeve that allows for clamping and secure fixing.

Large adjustment range: With an adjustment range of 140-170 mm, this end cap offers maximum flexibility for different mounting positions or subsequent adjustments.

68 mm long eyepiece: The long eyepiece allows for precise height adjustments within the adjustment range.

Completely made of stainless steel: Both the end cap and the adjustable eye insert and the adjustment sleeve are made entirely of AISI 316 stainless steel - no compromises on quality.
