Title Question about the material of LEKI hiking poles!Author Tianya Passer Time2003/01/2316:05
In the past, I saw a lot of forums and people saying that some of LEKI's trekking poles have aluminium alloy poles and some have titanium alloy poles, and at that time, I saw a lot of people saying that (including some outdoor veterans), so I also believed in what I was saying!However, recently, after carefully studying some materials about LEKI trekking poles (including the website and LEKI's annual product brochure), I found that there is a mistake that has been circulating for a long time: LEKI does not have any trekking poles with titanium alloy poles at all!LEKI's annual product brochure has this paragraph to introduce the material used in its trekking poles: The material used in the body of LEKI trekking poles is 7075 aerospace aluminium, which is heat-treated using LEKI's proprietary heat treatment technology to bring it to the optimal state of internal stress!In some outdoor magazines, there are advertisements for LEKI in Flagstaff, and the material introduced is also 7075 aerospace aluminium! All of the above said I personally think it's reliable, I wonder what you think!Title UltraliteTitanium, is the material of this model different?Author anthony Time2003/01/2316:26 Origin: Germany Brand: LEKI Use: mountaineering, hiking and other sports Colour: dark red Weight: 238 grams Model: UltraliteTitanium Product Description Three sections can be retracted, the length of 59-130cm; soft rubber grip, titanium alloy shaft, the strength of the same as the equivalent walking stick but the weight of 20% less; tungsten manganese alloy body, the same strength as the same walking stick but weight 20% less weight; tungsten-manganese alloy tip for greater durability; adjustable wrist strap LEKIULTRALITE (Ultralite) series is a walking stick, more suitable for Asian body shape and strength According to Leki's US website by buyilehu Time2003/01/2600:50
