A SPECIFIC ALUMINIUM FOR THE MARINE ENVIRONMENT
Nautix has selected high quality anodised 5086 aluminium to manufacture its booms. 5086 is known for its stiffness and corrosion resistance, ideal for the marine environment.
The hardness of the 5000 series, which is widely used in shipbuilding, is not expressed with a T as these grades are not usually heat treated. They are hardened by cold rolling.
Aluminium 5086 represents an optimal compromise between rigidity, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties (resistance to breakage and fatigue). It does, however, require fine control of the deformation processes.
A HIGH-PERFORMANCE FRONT HANDLE IN POLYAMIDE AND ALUMINIUM
Our new modified polyamide front handle with peripheral clamping allows more compression power on the mast, and less structural deformation. It ensures a better transmission of forces for a quick start to the planning. It has been designed to maximise the contact surface and protection of the mast. It is adapted for RDM or SDM masts.
30MM DIAMETER FOR BETTER RIGIDITY
The 30mm diameter of the Nx Original boom will give you optimum stiffness while being easy to handle for beginners.
AN EXCLUSIVE TMP SYSTEM
The TMP – Total Mast Protection – system allows a better distribution of the stresses on the boom/mast link for more rigidity while protecting the mast from abrasion.
CARE AND ADVICE
To keep your Nx Original boom as long as possible, Nautix advises you to rinse it with fresh water after each windsurfing session.
To store it, find a place where it won’t be exposed to shocks or unnecessary sunlight.
