What sizes do you offer?

The telescopic multi-positional cam-stay comes in three versions:

  • Basic with 5 locking positions
  • Basic with 10 locking positions
  • Reversible with 6 locking positions

What options are available?

All of our telescopic multi-positional cam-stays are universal and therefore can be mounted with the holding slots mounted up or down. Mounting of the stays can either be directly to your application through the holes or by mounting brackets. 

Basic – To operate the basic stay, all need to slightly extend the arm from its closed state until it locates into the required holding position. To close the unit, fully extend the stay before returning it to the closed position. The basic type is available with 5 or 10 holding positions. 

Reversible – To operate the reversible stay, extend the arm from its closed position until it locates into the desired holding position. The reversible version can be closed between any holding positions, it does not need to be fully extended before closing. To close the stay, simply extend it slightly out of its current holding position and close. The Reversible type is available with 6 holding positions. 

All telescopic multi-positional cam-stays are universal and can be mounted with the holding slots mounted.
