Ikelite Porthole Body Cap for SLR Housings

Ikelite SLR Housing Body Cap

This Ikelite body cap seals the porthole opening on an SLR housing where a port normally attaches. It protects the internal cavity from water, dust and accidental impacts during transport or storage. Photographers who travel with a housing but leave the lens port off will find it essential for keeping the O-ring surface clean and undamaged.

Check Housing Compatibility Before Ordering

Verify that the housing uses the standard Ikelite porthole mount so the cap threads or locks securely. Confirm the opening is free of corrosion, sand or damaged threads that would prevent a watertight seal. Ensure no port or extension ring remains attached, as the cap fits only the bare housing aperture.

Replaces a Missing or Damaged Port Cover

The cap upgrades from using tape, plastic wrap or a lost original cover that can leak or fall off. It is worth fitting whenever the housing is stored, shipped or moved between dive boats without a lens port installed. Buyers who need a sealed housing while a port is being serviced will benefit immediately.
