Frequently bought with
The OM System PRLC-14 Underwater Lens Cap for Underwater Housing is a dedicated protective accessory made for the PT-053 underwater housing. A lens port cap may be a small part of an underwater camera setup, but it plays an important role in preserving the condition of the housing by helping shield the front port area from dust, scratches, fingerprints, and incidental contact when the housing is not in use.
This genuine OM SYSTEM accessory is especially useful for photographers and travelers who regularly pack, transport, clean, and store their underwater housing between dives or shooting sessions. Keeping the port covered helps reduce unnecessary wear and can make long-term maintenance easier.

OM SYSTEM / Olympus PT-053 Underwater Housing
Purpose and Protection
The PRLC-14 is designed to cover the lens port area of the PT-053 housing when the housing is not actively being used in the water. This helps protect the port opening from everyday hazards such as abrasions in a gear bag, dust accumulation on stored equipment, and accidental smudges from handling. For underwater imaging gear, keeping external optical surfaces and surrounding components protected is an important part of preserving performance and appearance.
Designed for the PT-053 Housing
Because this is a dedicated cap for the PT-053, it offers a more appropriate fit than improvised covers or generic alternatives. A purpose-built accessory helps ensure easier installation and removal while maintaining the intended level of protection for the housing’s front section. For users replacing a missing original cap, choosing the correct OEM part helps restore the housing kit to its proper configuration.
Why a Port Cap Matters
Underwater housings are specialized tools, and the front port area is one of the most important exposed sections of the system. Even out of the water, the housing may be set on tables, packed into cases, or carried between locations. A protective cap helps minimize direct contact with the port area and can be particularly helpful during travel, in dive boats, on sandy shorelines, or in storage environments where equipment may shift around alongside other accessories.
Ideal Uses
The PRLC-14 is well suited for routine equipment storage, travel packing, transport between shoot locations, and keeping a spare on hand in case the original cap is misplaced. It is a simple but practical addition for underwater photographers who want to keep their housing organized and protected as part of a complete maintenance routine.
Usage Tips
- Attach the cap whenever the PT-053 housing is being stored or transported.
- Make sure the port area is clean and dry before fitting the cap after use.
- Store the housing in a padded case or bag for added protection during travel.
- Keep a backup cap in your dive kit if you travel frequently or shoot in harsh environments.
- Inspect the housing and port area regularly as part of standard underwater gear maintenance.
Recommended Accessories
- Padded camera or underwater gear case for transport
- Microfiber cleaning cloth for exterior maintenance
- Blower or soft cleaning tools for dust removal before storage
- Moisture-control storage solution or dry cabinet for long-term equipment care
- Additional genuine housing accessories specific to the PT-053 system
OEM Accessory Advantage
Genuine OM SYSTEM accessories are developed to match the brand’s equipment standards and intended fit. For replacement parts like a port cap, an original accessory helps simplify ownership by providing a solution made specifically for the corresponding housing model rather than relying on generic substitutes that may not align correctly.
