Product Overview

Built for Aussie conditions, the Element Optics Helix 2–16 Sunshade 3" cuts glare so you can stay on target when the sun’s doing its worst. Designed to pair with your Helix scope, it helps reduce lens flare, sharpen your sight picture, and keep your reticle crisp from first light to last.

Simple to run and tough enough for regular field use, this 3-inch sunshade screws straight onto the objective, adding a bit of extra protection for your glass from dust and light drizzle. If you’re shooting off the bench, in the paddock, or out spotlighting, it’s a no-fuss upgrade that keeps your view clean and your shots consistent.
