The Corklite AS and Thermolite XL AS are LEKI trekking poles using the Speed Lock 1 / Super Lock System (SP1/SLS) locking system. This 14 mm middle section at 462 mm length is the correct replacement for the specified variants. The middle section connects the upper section assembly to the lower section and is the most frequently replaced component after extended field use. Before ordering, confirm the printed length on your existing middle section reads 462 mm and that the section diameter is 14 mm. The locking system must be Speed Lock 1 / Super Lock System (SP1/SLS). If you are unsure of compatibility, email photos of the full pole and existing section to [email protected] before ordering.

✓ Spare parts support: LEKI typically supports spare parts for approximately 10 years from product launch. Contact [email protected] or call +44 (0)1250 710414 to confirm availability.
✓ To fit: open the Speed Lock lever or release the SLS twist-lock, seat the section fully, then lock via the appropriate mechanism. Ensure the section is fully seated before locking. Dry before storage.
✓ Article code check: the article code is usually printed on the section tube itself. Cross-reference with the codes listed above before ordering. If your code is not listed, email [email protected] with photos for confirmation.
✓ Post-fit care: dry the section fully before storage; do not store the pole collapsed with moisture trapped inside the tube. Keep locking components clean and free from grit or debris.
✓ Fitting check: after fitting, extend the pole to working height and apply gentle downward pressure — the section should hold its position without slipping or creaking. Re-adjust the locking mechanism if needed before use.
