SVETOCH regularly uses images intended to represent the mission. In addition, the same sample images are regularly used for different variants. Images are used by the manufacturer that only serve an application, use and illustrate. Products may differ from the images. The only decisive factor for the product is the description text. In addition, especially with end caps made of ABS plastic, it is possible that residues of excess material on the end caps are present due to production. This does not limit the function.
