NAB Machined 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. Concentricity & axial runout is less than .003" TIR. Beautifully anodized for appearance and durability in your choice of three colors and laser engraved.
-
Three stainless steel ball detents spaced at precisely 120° provide equal outward pressure of 4-7 lbs at each point, to capture the reels and provide DYNAMIC REEL CENTERING automatically. No clamps to turn or expansion collars. “Snap” the reels on and lift the reels off - it’s really that easy.
-
NAB drive pins (3) are case hardened steel in black “no-rust” finish. You won't find any plastic on MagREELS™ NAB adapters.
Auto-centering MagREELS™ adapters will absolutely:
