Product Information
Full details
The Kase Armour Magnetic Square Frame is an essential accessory for landscape and professional photographers who prioritize speed and security when using 100x100x2mm square filters. It is designed to integrate seamlessly into the Kase Armour Holder system, providing a robust, magnetic housing that allows for lightning-fast filter swaps in the field. While it significantly improves workflow efficiency and adds a layer of physical protection to delicate glass, users should note that it is specifically optimized for 100mm square filters and may not be compatible with non-standard filter thicknesses or brands outside the Kase Wolverine series.

FAQs
Can I use this frame with non-Kase filters?
The frame is designed for 100x100x2mm filters; while other 2mm filters may fit, the best performance and tolerances are achieved with the Kase Wolverine 100mm series.
Does this frame protect against drops?
It provides edge protection that can help absorb minor impacts, but it is primarily designed for housing and handling, not as a dedicated drop-protection case.
Does the frame cause vignetting?
The frame is low-profile and designed to work with wide-angle lenses, but vignetting can still occur depending on the focal length and how many filters are stacked.
How do I remove the filter from the frame?
Gently apply pressure to the glass from the rear of the frame until it pops out, or use the designated release points if applicable.
Is this compatible with the Kase K9 holder?
The Armour system is distinct from the K9 holder. This frame is specifically designed for the Kase Armour Magnetic Holder system.
Troubleshooting
Filter feels loose inside the frame
Ensure the filter is pushed completely into the frame housing and that there is no debris preventing it from sitting flush.
Magnetic connection is weak
Check the magnetic contact points on both the frame and the holder for dust, grit, or sand buildup and wipe clean with a cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the system, simply align your 100x100x2mm filter into the magnetic frame so that it sits flush against the inner edges. Once secured, the frame snaps directly into the dedicated slots of the Kase Armour Holder. This system is specifically designed for the Kase Wolverine 100mm series, and while it may physically fit other 2mm thick glass filters, users should verify tolerances before heavy field use. To care for your frames, wipe the magnetic surfaces with a soft, dry microfiber cloth to ensure a strong connection. Avoid submerging the frames in salt water, and if the frame becomes wet during a shoot, allow it to air dry fully before storing it in a padded case to prevent moisture buildup.
