Hello,
Selling my lightly used pair of 18" Element Technica 15mm Ultra Rods.
product info from the manufacturer's site:
Ultra-Light Ultra-Strong Ultra-Durable
Element Technica’s Ultra Rods™ are extremely durable nickel plating over aircraft grade aluminum tubing. In an effort to develop our own carbon fiber rod solution we struggled with the high costs and functional limitations of carbon fiber. We developed a unique, low-cost solution for weight conscious hand-held shooters. Our Ultra-Light iris rods are made from seamless extruded aircraft grade aluminum. They are precision ground then finished with a durable nickel plating. The result is an iris rod with the low weight of aluminum but the surface durability and ease of operation of stainless steel. While they are strong enough for most zooms they weigh in at one third the weight of stainless.
For heavyweight use, try Element Technica’s Stainless Steel Iris Rods. These rods are made from precision ground 304 Stainless Steel and are ideal in situations where a heavy zoom lens is employed.
Weight Comparison:
– 15mm Stainless Steel, 12″ length – 240 grams
– 15mm Ultra Rods, 12″ length – 85 grams
Asking $100 paypal + shipping included
