3" Grooved Camera Skid • Fits 1.43" Self-Leveling Cameras • Protects and Centers Camera Head

Improve camera protection and visibility during pipe inspections with the Hathorn SK-143GR.HAT 3-Inch Grooved Skid. Designed specifically for compatible 1.43-inch self-leveling camera heads, this skid helps protect the camera from impacts and abrasive pipe surfaces while improving positioning inside the line.

The skid raises the camera head above standing water and debris, helping reduce visual interference and provide a clearer inspection image. It also helps center the camera within the pipe for a more stable, balanced view during diagnostics and assessments.

Using a properly sized skid is strongly recommended to help protect your inspection equipment and improve overall camera performance.
