EAW Rear Pivot Ring, 36 mm

• 36 mm Ring Interface: Built for riflescopes with a 36 mm main tube, this rear pivot ring provides the correct fit and clamping geometry for large-tube optics used on heavy-duty hunting and precision setups.
• Steel Construction: The steel body gives the part the rigidity and wear resistance needed in a pivot mount, helping the scope stay secure through repeated mounting cycles and recoil.
• Made for EAW Pivot Systems: Designed to work with EAW Type Pivot Bases, it supports the repeatable return-to-zero and modular serviceability that make pivot mounts practical for rifles with removable optics.
• Spare Part for Professional Maintenance: As part of the EAW Spare Parts range, this rear ring is intended for repair, replacement, or reconfiguration of an existing mount without replacing the whole assembly.
• Made in Germany: German manufacture reflects EAW’s long focus on precision mounting components, which matters when a small part must align correctly with the rest of the mount system.

About the EAW Spare Parts Series

EAW Spare Parts supports the company’s professional mount range with replacement components and workshop tools intended to keep established mounting systems in service. Within the broader EAW lineup, this series sits alongside the brand’s complete pivot, slide-on or roll-off, and claw mounts, but focuses on the parts that allow those systems to be maintained, repaired, or adapted over time. That makes it especially relevant for gunsmiths, armourers, and experienced shooters who want to preserve a proven mounting setup rather than replace it outright.

The series covers a wide span of mount-related components, including parts for pivot mounts, slide-on and roll-off systems, and claw mounts. EAW also lists practical workshop items such as an alignment aid for rifle scopes and a tool for polishing the slewing ring on a pivot mount’s front foot. The overall design philosophy is straightforward: modular parts, precise fit, and serviceability for long-term use. In practice, the series helps maintain the repeatability and mechanical integrity expected from EAW mounts, whether the task is replacing a worn component, restoring a classic setup, or fine-tuning a professional installation.

About the EAW Rear Pivot Ring, 36 mm

The EAW Rear Pivot Ring, 36 mm is a dedicated rear ring component for an EAW pivot mount setup using a 36 mm riflescope tube. In practical terms, it is the part that allows a large-tube optic to be integrated into the rear section of the mount while preserving the geometry and handling characteristics expected from a pivot system. This makes it relevant for shooters running modern high-adjustment hunting optics or larger precision scopes that require the extra internal space of a 36 mm main tube.

Its steel construction is important because the rear ring is a load-bearing mounting part rather than a cosmetic accessory. A steel component resists deformation, supports secure clamping, and stands up well to repeated opening, closing, and removal of the optic. In a pivot mount, that matters for maintaining consistent alignment and dependable reinstallation after transport, storage, or a change of optic.

Because it is intended for compatibility with EAW Type Pivot Bases, this rear ring fits into a modular mounting concept rather than acting as a universal standalone ring. That gives the user a practical advantage: an existing EAW mount can be repaired or reconfigured with the correct component instead of being discarded. The black finish keeps the appearance discreet and matches typical riflescope and mount hardware, while the German-made construction aligns with the precise fit expected from a specialist mount part.

About EAW

EAW traces its origins to 1919, when Ernst Apel founded the company in Würzburg, Germany. The business produced its first riflescope mounts in 1945, and since 1951 the development and production of scope mounts have been its primary focus. That long specialization is central to the brand’s reputation in the sporting and hunting optics market, where precise fit, repeatability, and durable mechanical design matter as much as the optic itself.

Today, Ernst Apel GmbH is headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany, following the company’s production move from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970. EAW is known for manufacturing pivot mounts, slide-on or roll-off mounts, and claw mounts for riflescopes, and it has also expanded into thermal imaging products. For mount components such as this rear pivot ring, EAW’s relevance lies in its long-standing expertise in modular mounting systems built for serviceability, repeat precision, and compatibility across a wide range of rifles and optics.
