CARBON FIBERS IN SCOTT WINTERSPORTS
SCOTT uses Carbon Construction as it's a strong yet lightweight material that never sacrifices performance. Light, stiff, with unmatchable performance, Carbon Construction is used in SCOTT skis, poles and boots because there are no shortcuts to building a better product.
FILAMENT WOUND COMPOSITE POLES
SCOTT composite poles undergo an automated filament winding process, whereby the shafts are machine-spun, producing an extremely consistent product. Filament winding allows high-fiber volumetric fraction and the use of continuous fibers, which leads to high strength and reliable poles. Glass fibers allow for a high amount of flexibility and durability, while carbon fibers, with their unique strangth to weight ratio, lead to high strength, powerful and light poles.
50% CARBON FIBER
Pro Taper poles integrate a carbon matrix design for a good balance between carbon fiber's high strength and glass fiber's flexibility and durability. Unlike the Zeo13, the Pro Taper includes 50% glass fiber for higher flexibility while staying lightweight and good strength.
75% CARBON FIBER
Carbon matrix ski poles maintain all the positive attributes of carbon fiber, as they are extremely lightweight and strong while they integrate glass fibers to enhance flexibility and durabilit. This pole - composed of 75% carbon fiber - is performance oriented and possesses the best balance between light weight, strength and durability.
100% GLASS FIBER
The filament wound glass fiber poles possess high strength and great flexibility for extreme durability. They will withstand any beating that a skier throws its way.
CARBON FIBER
Carbon fiber, with its minimal weight and significant strength, processed using filament winding technique is an ideal material for ski pole shafts. Carbon fiber reduces vibration and absorbs shock while improving feel and providing the best swing weight.
CARBON MATRIX
Carbon matrix ski poles, also processed using filament winding, maintain all the positive attributes of carbon fiber while integrating fiberglass to create a carbon matrix that possesses the high strength of carbon as well as a good flexibility and durability while keeping a lifht weight.
