Amazon.com Product Description

Leupold optics have long set the standard for high performance, and now, with Alumina accessories, the company sets the standard for adaptability, too. Each Alumina flip-back lens cover features a powerful neodymium magnet to hold it securely closed over the lens, along with triple O-ring seals for maximum protection from the elements. More significantly, the cover flips open easily when you want to view an object through your Leupold riflescope, so you don't need to manually remove the cover before targeting an object. The cover is even clockable, so you can rotate it to open in any direction. Other details include a machined-aluminum precision construction, a low-profile design, and quick and easy operation. This particular matte black cover is designed for Leupold 36mm lenses, but covers are available for a variety of other sizes of eyepieces and objective lenses.

About Leupold
From humble immigrant beginnings, Leupold grew--based on a promise of quality--to become a classic American company. In 1907, Fred Leupold set up a one-man shop at 5th and Oak streets in Portland to repair surveying equipment. He was joined by his brother-in-law, Adam Voelpel, and later by inventor John Cyprian Stevens, and the foundations for a century of success were in place.

During Leupold’s second half-century, the company focused heavily on the sports optics business. Leupold’s presence in the hunting and shooting market expanded with innovative optics and features that are now legendary among hunters, shooters, and outdoors enthusiasts. Many of the industry’s standards--nitrogen waterproofing, the Duplex reticle, and more--were Leupold creations.

This review is from: Leupold Alumina Flip Back Lens Cover 36mm 59040 (Sports)

I bought this and the flip eyepiece cover for use on my VX-III riflescope. Strong magnets hold covers closed, rubber o-rings keep the moisture out. To open caps quickly, simply brush the thumb of your forward hand against the protruding thumbtab in the front as you shoulder the rifle, your rear hand touches a lever on the eyepiece cover. Way faster to open than any other scope covers I've ever used. Covers can be indexed so they're lined up and locked in at the correct angle.
