If you have encountered the unreliability of standard plastic J-arms for PVS-14, you know very well that this is the weakest link in the helmet system. The UDAPT hinged J-arm was created to address these issues – a reinforced adapter was developed based on real combat experience during field operations. It is a complete solution for a stable and durable connection between the monocular and the helmet mount.
The UDAPT J-arm combines strength, controlled deformation, and safe load transfer. The hinged design and use of premium materials allow the adapter to absorb shock loads, reducing the risk of dangerous shock loads being transferred to the operator's neck and minimizing damage to the optics.
Features
1. Two independent hinge assemblies provide a wide range of adjustments for precise monocular alignment.
2. The center element can be rotated 180° to increase the distance from the eye (approximately 10 mm), which is convenient when using gas masks or protective masks.
3. A special connection point for bungee cords allows the system to be stabilized during active movements.
4. A closer position to the face reduces glare and improves light masking in the dark.
Advantages
- Adjustable dovetail interface eliminates any play and ensures a rigid connection to the mount.
- 7075 aluminum body combined with titanium hinges guarantees long service life in extreme conditions.
- The monocular can be moved or switched between eyes with a quick, controlled movement, without complicated controls.
- When folded, the device fits snugly against the helmet, reducing the risk of snagging.
- The hinges act as dampers, protecting the optics and the user from impact overload.
