BRACA-SPORT Macon Blades

bullet

Each blade has an extended sleeve for the attachment of the shaft. This method of assembling the two separate components has been extensively researched and tested. It has been proven to be the very best available method for strength, durability, and "in water" performance. The blade, the stiffened sleeve and the shaft all form one homogenous unit.

All blades and shafts are constructed using an U/V protected heat cured toughened epoxy resin.

ULTRA-LIGHT (Yellow label) shafts are produced by using almost 100% pure High Modulus carbon. These shafts have both maximum lightness and ‘stiffness’.

bullet

STANDARD (Red label) shafts have a lower carbon content. They are less stiff then the Ultra light and are 20% heavier. This material combination has the highest possible impact resistance.

bullet

RECREATIONAL (Green label) still retains excellent ‘stiffness’ and ‘feel’, even though the carbon content has been reduced to 40%. They maintain high impact resistance and carry only a 11% weight premium over the Standard type.

 

 

Adjustable Handles:

The ULTRA-LIGHT, yellow label, and STANDARD, red label, sculls are manufactured with carbon handles, this allows for easy adjustment to the overall length.
