Orange Apex 1 - Large Tripod Adaptor for Lavvu, East German (NVA/DDS) shelters & Russian Palatkas.

Large tripod adaptor designed specifically for use with the Polish, German and Russian Military Coat Tents (all sizes). It can be also used with other tents / tarpaulins etc to create a tent like structure with no central pole thus freeing up space inside for a military camp bed.

The Apex 1 was designed for use with 3 cut branches having a diameter of 25mm / 1” or less. Inserting the branches into the Apex joint creates an open frame that is designed to fit inside one or two Lavvu military coats (or 3 German/Russian equivalents) to create a half Lavvu or Full Lavvu. It can also be used with tent poles or extendable awning / washing line poles up to 25mm in diameter. It has a large central hole that can be used to support heavier items such as a rucksack or kettle using the supplied carabiner. There are also 3 x 8mm holes to attach guy wires or hang lighter items such as a torch.
