Removing port extension ring

3 posts
  1. I have a dome port/extension ring that I can not get to separate. Everything is still sealed, but they won't unscrew. Anyone ever experience this, and how did you fix it? By the way the housing is an Ikelite...

    get a couple of strap wrenches (the rubber kind, not the aluminum kind) and you should be able to unscrew them.

  3. I am not familiar with the Ikelite setup, but almost anything that is stuck that can be unscrewed can be loosened by gently tapping on the outside near the threads for a long period of time. Tap gently and take your time. I had a filter stuck on a lens one time that took me 30 minutes of tapping to loosen.
