INON Carbon Telescopic Arms – Lightweight, Adjustable Underwater Arm System

INON Carbon Telescopic Arms – Lightweight, Adjustable Underwater Arm System

The INON Carbon Telescopic Arms are a smart alternative to traditional multi-arm systems, offering a clean, compact and highly adjustable solution for underwater lighting setups.

Constructed from multi-layer carbon fibre, these arms are exceptionally lightweight while maintaining excellent rigidity and durability—ideal for both travel and demanding dive conditions. The telescopic design allows you to extend or collapse the arm instantly using a simple lock dial, eliminating the need for multiple clamps and arm segments.

Please also see the INON Mega Tubes - Exclusively designed for Carbon Telescopic Arm to generate extraordinary buoyancy underwater with weather resistant ABS material which carries lower specific gravity, and hollow design. Maximum two Mega Float Tubes can be attached on both ends of the Carbon Telescopic Arm. The Float Tube is designed to screw on Carbon Telescopic Arm and fixed with the dedicated lock ring.
The Float Tube can hold a Lens Holder for Float Arm or a Shoe Base Spacer on its side.
