Carbon Fibre Ferrule transforms a one-piece wooden paddle into two parts for easy commute and storage. Fitting Kit and instructions included. Measure, split, and trim your wooden paddle with confidence.
Split your wooden paddle with confidence
Fitting Kit with instructions in detailed steps are included. Every measurement is clearly marked to help you transform your wood paddle into a two piece carbon fibre hybrid.
Easy Transformation:
Gearlab Outdoors' ferrule can be added to any wooden paddle, providing the sturdiness of a one-piece paddle with the convenience of a two-piece design.
Firm & Flush:
The ferrule uses the same signature carbon fibre Diamond-Joint found in our flagship paddles to spring snap the blades firmly together. There are no protruding parts, the shaft remains flush, and no tools are needed to separate or reattach the paddle.
Rust free join:
Gearlab uses aerospace-grade titanium screws, a carbon fibre spring and a PU joint to eliminate the possibility of corrosion from salt water.

Great kit to convert your long paddle into a well designed and reliable 2 piece. Care is required in completing the conversion but most people should be able to do the job with patience and only a couple of tools. Measure at least twice before the irreversible cut(s) of your long paddle. I used the kit to convert my Greenland paddle to a shorter 'storm' version.
