Pair of Adv Feltac Grips for Carbon Staff

$7.95 USD Weight 0.71 oz / 20.0 g
Lead Time Ships in 1-3 Days Adv Feltac Grips are used to wrap the handles on sporting equipment, including your Zpacks Carbon Fiber Staff.

The grips are soft and comfortable to hold onto, they absorb sweat, and are long lasting.

A pair of grips are included by default with new staffs. Use this pair of grips to retrofit older staffs or to replace worn out grips.
  •  Use this pair of Adv Feltac Grips to wrap the upper two sections (7.5" and 11.5") on your Zpacks Carbon Fiber Staff.

  • The lower end of each grip is cut at an angle and has adhesive on the tail.

  • Start at the bottom end of the section you wish to wrap. Stick the tail end of the grip to the bottom of the tube such that the angled side of the grip is facing down. The angle will help to start a spiral.

  • Pull the grip snug and wrap at an angle, overlapping each previous coil by about 1/4" to 3/8" (about .8 cm). If the grip does not reach the top of the tube, try again with slightly smaller overlaps.

  • When you reach the top of the tube, stop wrapping about 1/4" to 3/8" (.8 cm) below the top of the tube such that the notch is not covered, and there is a little bit of carbon exposed below the notch for tape.

  • Cut the top of the grip at a squared off angle roughly matching the shape of the tail at the bottom. Do not add multiple wraps at the top of the tube or it will be difficult to fit the vinyl end cap over the grip- a single coil is good.

  • Use the included tape to wrap the top of the grip snug. The tape should be on top of the grip and also stuck to the exposed carbon right below the notch. Make sure that the grip, and the tape are not covering the notch.

  • The grips should last for a long time, and they are easy to replace if needed.
