About the PolarPro RDGLCK-DEF
From our tech experts at CEN
The PolarPro Helix Base Plate Defender Cap (RDGLCK-DEF) is a replacement protective cap for the PolarPro Helix MagLock system. It fits over any Helix MagLock Base Plate regardless of size, and also covers the front of any Helix MagLock filter when not in use, keeping optics clean and scratch-free.
Who it suits
This cap suits any Helix MagLock user who needs a spare or replacement cover, for example if the original cap has been lost or damaged. It is also worth buying a dedicated cap for each filter in a multi-filter kit.
