Optic Guard Clip DLX Binocular Strap Quick Release Adaptor

The Connect System and the Optic Guard System are interchangeable straps that allow you to choose the best strap for your trip, whether for photography or birdwatching.

The Optic Guard Clip DLX is a pair of quick release adaptors that can be fitted to any binocular strap and incorporates a quick release system that is designed to keep your binoculars secure on the go, while allowing you to change your strap in seconds.  This means that if you don't have to be limited to straps from Vanguard, but can choose any strap and get all the benefits of the quick release system. 

An 8cm Optic Guard Tether with a metal bean attaches to the strap eyelet your device, with the Optic Guard Clip attached to strap. To attach, simply slot the tether into the clip and pull down until secure. To release, pull the orange tab to 45° and slide the tether free. This allows you to switch between compatible straps in seconds.

To ensure the safety of your gear, the Optic Guard Clip DLX system rated to 90kg based on Vanguard’s vertical hanging test, or 20kg when dropped 25cm.

Connect Straps:

The Connect System is aimed primarily at photography, with a shorter 6cm tether. They can also be used for birdwatchers and are interchangeable with the Optic Guard system, though we'd recommend using the longer Optic Guard Tethers.

Optic Guard Harnesses:

The Optic Guard System is aimed primarily at birdwatching, with a longer 8cm tether to attach the eyepiece covers of your optics, whether a binocular or monocular.

So if you're looking for a completely interchangeable system, whether it's for your photography or your birding, then the Connect System and the Optic Guard System deliver a great solution.
