Alu 240 Probe

7075-T6 Aluminum is renowned for its exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, making it an ideal choice for outdoor gear. This alloy is lightweight yet incredibly durable, allowing you to carry less weight without sacrificing performance. It's perfect for activities like skiing or snowboarding, where both strength and portability are crucial.

The Aramid Tensioning System utilizes high-strength synthetic fibers to maintain the probe's stability and straightness during use. This ensures accurate depth readings in snow, which is vital for assessing avalanche risk. The added strength and heat resistance of aramid fibers enhance the probe's reliability in challenging conditions.

The Quick-Lock Assembly System allows for fast and tool-free setup and takedown of the probe. This convenience means you can quickly assemble your gear when time is of the essence, such as during changing weather conditions or emergencies. It enhances your overall efficiency and readiness in the field.

The Visual Guide System features clear markings or color indicators on the probe, making it easier for beginners to read snow depth accurately. This user-friendly design simplifies the process of determining how deep the snow is, which is essential for making informed decisions about safety in avalanche-prone areas.

Large Probe Tips are designed to penetrate packed snow more effectively than standard tips. This feature allows users to quickly and efficiently check snow depth, which is crucial for assessing avalanche risk. The larger surface area helps the probe cut through dense layers, providing reliable readings in various snow conditions.

Absolutely! While these probes are specifically designed for snow depth measurement and avalanche safety, their lightweight construction and durable materials make them versatile for other outdoor activities, such as camping or hiking in snowy conditions. Their reliability and ease of use can enhance your overall outdoor experience.
