EAW Roll-off Mount Bases for Tikka 558, KR 16mm

• Dedicated Tikka 558 fit: This EAW roll-off mount base is made for the Tikka 558 with a KR 16 mm interface, giving a precise platform for building a secure riflescope mounting setup.
• Low 8.20 mm height: The compact base height helps keep the optic closer to the bore, which supports a more natural cheek weld and a cleaner sight line on hunting rifles.
• Aluminium construction: The aluminium body keeps weight down without adding unnecessary bulk, which suits lighter rifle builds and preserves handling balance.
• 0 MOA inclination: With 0 MOA built in, the base is well suited to standard zeroing distances and general-purpose hunting or sporting use where a neutral mounting angle is preferred.
• Part of the roll-off system: EAW’s roll-off concept allows the optic assembly to be removed and reattached, making the system practical for rifles that may alternate between different sighting setups.

About the EAW Roll-off Mounts Series

EAW Roll-off Mounts are positioned as a practical, cost-conscious alternative within the company’s mounting range, sitting below the classic pivot mount line while still retaining the core EAW focus on precise rifle-to-optic fit. The series is intended for lighter firearm setups and is commonly used on sporting rifles, small-calibre platforms and other rifles with suitable dovetail or integrated mounting interfaces.

The range includes one-piece and two-piece designs, with versions for fixed installation as well as models with lever-operated attachment, depending on the rifle and application. Across the series, the main idea is straightforward: provide a stable mount that can support repeatable optic installation while keeping the system mechanically simple. EAW also offers the line for different top-side interfaces, including Picatinny and dovetail-based solutions, so the series covers both traditional European rifle configurations and more modern optic setups. For shooters who want EAW build quality in a simpler mounting format, the roll-off family fills that role well.

About the EAW Roll-off Mount Bases for Tikka 558, KR 16mm

The EAW Roll-off Mount Bases for Tikka 558, KR 16mm are designed as dedicated base components for building a secure scope mounting solution on the Tikka 558. Because the base is matched to the rifle’s 16 mm KR geometry, it provides the correct starting point for a stable installation without relying on universal-fit compromises. That matters on a hunting rifle, where consistent optic alignment is essential for maintaining zero and predictable field performance.

The use of aluminium keeps the base light, which is especially useful on rifles carried over long distances or used for quick offhand shooting. Its 8.20 mm height supports a relatively low mounting position, helping the shooter maintain a comfortable head position behind the scope while avoiding unnecessary bulk above the receiver. The black finish gives the part a subdued appearance that matches most rifles and optics without drawing attention to the mounting hardware.

With 0 MOA inclination, this base is aimed at straightforward sporting and hunting use rather than specialised long-range correction. As part of the EAW Roll-off Mounts system, it suits shooters who value a clean, rifle-specific mounting solution and the practical flexibility associated with removable optic setups.

About EAW

EAW traces its history to 1919, when Ernst Apel founded the company in Würzburg, Germany. The business later became closely associated with precision mounting systems, and since 1951 the development and production of riflescope mounts have been its main focus. EAW produced its first riflescope mounts in 1945, establishing the technical direction that still defines the brand.

Today, EAW is known for German-made mounting solutions including pivot, slide-on or roll-off, and claw mounts for riflescopes. The company moved production from Würzburg to Gerbrunn in 1970, and Ernst Apel GmbH is now headquartered in Eibelstadt, Germany. In addition to mounts, EAW also offers thermal imaging devices, but its reputation in the shooting optics market remains strongly tied to durable, rifle-specific mounting systems built for repeatable optic installation.
