The cam-stay is a manually operated telescopic multi-positional stay designed to support up to 135kg. With fixed holding positions it provides quick and steady positioning.
It is a great, cost-effective alternative to a gas strut where positional control is required and the mass of the item being held is low. Ideally suited for a wide range of applications where a weight must be held or supported at various angles.
| Part Number | No. of Holding Positions | Closed Length (mm) | Extended Length (mm) |

To operate, simply extend the arm until it locks into the desired position. To close, either fully extend the stay before returning it to the closed position (basic models) or extend slightly and close (reversible model).

The telescopic multi-positional cam-stay comes in three versions:
All telescopic multi-positional cam-stay are universal and 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 you need to do is slightly extend the arm from its closed state until it locates into the desired 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.
