Monocoque V-grip Boom Body Aluminium HD 160 Unifiber UF012010470

Monocoque V-grip Boom Body Aluminium HD 160 Unifiber UF012010470

Description:

The Monocoque V-grip Boom Body Aluminium HD 160 from Unifiber is a high-performance aluminum boom designed for windsurfing and other sailboard rig setups that demand stiffness, durability and comfortable control. Constructed around a monocoque T8 alloy frame, the V-grip tube profile replicates the natural shape of the hand to deliver an efficient, secure grip that reduces fatigue during long sessions. Precision-engineered curve geometry increases deflection resistance and structural integrity, approaching the performance of high-end carbon booms while retaining the resilience of aluminium. An anodized tail end improves corrosion resistance and overall longevity in marine environments. Lightweight yet robust, the HD series also supports Unifiber’s "Configure Me" modular options so you can combine, renew or upgrade components as needed for customization and repairability.

Key Features:

• Monocoque T8 alloy (aluminium) construction for an optimal strength-to-weight ratio
• V-grip tube profile ergonomically shaped to match natural finger and palm anatomy
• Precision-engineered boom curves for high deflection resistance and direct feel
• Performance close to carbon booms while retaining aluminium durability
• Anodized tail end for enhanced corrosion resistance and extended lifespan
