Haber bought this part to a LEKI walking stick (Photosystem Carbon, Black / Gold / Silver, 120-170, 6332097) quick to make a stand tripod. In the socket of the Mini Tripod I have therefore (from the outer diameter reduced by Messe) Gummipuffer pressed an extra. So you can fix the walking stick in this tripod quickly. That part I can take only a few months but probably because it stinks so. Because of the stench and the devaluation.
