Materials & Construction
The molded Pro-Tip is manufactured from a composite of Dynel® and Kevlar®, combining outstanding abrasion resistance with impact durability for demanding river environments. The pre-formed design simplifies installation while restoring the blade's original profile.
The included SilverTip Epoxy Kit provides everything needed to permanently bond the molded Pro-Tip to your oar. The kit includes 4 oz Part A Resin, 2 oz Part B Fast Hardener, and 8 oz of Cab-O-Sil Epoxy Thickener. Cab-O-Sil transforms the epoxy into a non-sag adhesive that fills gaps, creates smooth fillets, and forms a strong, durable bond between the Pro-Tip and the oar blade.
