Description
LEKI Code: LESECL78 14 mm Lower Section 392 mm Length Black Anodized Speed Lock 1 (SL1) 16/14 mm Section Production Era: Approximately 2004–2010
This 14 mm lower section is the correct factory replacement for the LEKI Wanderfreund trekking pole in the Speed Lock 1 (SL1) black anodized configuration, built on the standard 18/16/14 mm three-section telescopic geometry. The SL1 external lever provides fast one-motion height adjustment, clamping directly against the outer wall of the 14 mm section. The black anodized finish (colour code 033) and 392 mm printed length are the defining specifications for this SL1 version of the Wanderfreund. From straightforward moorland paths across Dartmoor to everyday walks through the New Forest, the Wanderfreund SL1 offered quick-adjust simplicity. When the lower section is bent, cracked, or worn beyond reliable service, this replacement restores the original geometry and SL1 function precisely. The 392 mm printed length is specific to this SL1 Wanderfreund configuration — verify the printed marking on your existing lower section before ordering. Sold as a single section.

► Compatible Poles & Fitting Guide
This lower section is confirmed compatible with the following LEKI poles. Always verify the printed length and diameter on your existing lower section before ordering.
✓ Wanderfreund — article codes 6322081, 6362081
✓ Diameter check: This is a 14 mm section. Measure the diameter of your existing lower section with calipers before ordering. A section measuring a different diameter requires a different spare part.
✓ Length verification: The 392 mm printed length is the defining specification — measure the printed marking on your existing lower section, not the physical length. A section showing any other printed length requires a different spare part.
✓ Fitting: Open the Speed Lock 1 lever to release the existing section, then slide it out from the tip end. Insert the new section and close the Speed Lock 1 lever firmly to secure. The lever should close flush with the collar.
✓ Lock engagement: If the lever does not close fully or the section moves under load, tighten the adjuster nut on the clamp collar clockwise in quarter-turn increments until the lever locks securely. Do not overtighten.
✓ Not sure? Email photos of the full pole, the damaged section, and any visible article codes to [email protected] so the correct replacement can be confirmed before ordering.
► Not Compatible With
✗ SL1 poles with a lower section of a different diameter — the lever collar will not seat correctly on a different diameter and the pole will not lock securely
✗ SL1 poles with a lower section of a different printed length — SL1 lower sections of other printed lengths are different spare parts and are not interchangeable
✗ Speed Lock 2 (SL2) poles — later external lever generation with revised collar interface; SL1 sections are not interchangeable with SL2 lever collars
✗ SLS (Super Lock System) poles — internal twist-lock mechanism; entirely different locking interface from the SL1 external lever system
BEFORE YOU ORDER — FOUR-POINT CHECK
✓ Printed length: Must read 392 mm on your existing lower section — check the printed marking, not a physical measurement
✓ Diameter: Confirm 14 mm lower section diameter — measure with calipers. This is a 16/14 mm profile section
✓ Locking system: Confirm Speed Lock 1 (SL1) — the lever opens outward from a hinged collar. If your pole has an SLS internal twist-lock collar or an SL2 lever, this section is not suitable
✓ Construction: 3-section telescopic (Vario) with 16/14 mm section profile — verify the profile matches before ordering
✓ Unsure? Email photos of the full pole, the damaged section, and any visible article codes to [email protected] for confirmation before ordering
