PSC FBPLCC Elite Series Large Carbon Fiber Boom Pole with Coiled Cable, 3' to 12.3' Length

PSC FBPLCC Elite Large Carbon Fiber Boom Pole with Coiled Cable represents a 'no compromise' design in boom pole engineering. Built with the finest materials available, the Elite design is a compilation of more than 22 years of customer feedback and suggestions. Each Elite pole, along with its accompanying accessories and parts, is hand-crafted in the USA.

Available in lengths of 6, 8, 12 and 17 feet, the Elite series boom pole tubes utilize a blend of super high modulus carbon fibers that are precision wound, providing a delicate balance of strength, stiffness, torsion rigidity and low handling noise. After winding, each tube is impregnated with resins and baked under tight, computer-controlled temperature and humidity conditions. It is then ground to the highest aerospace tolerances.

Utilizing a system of fixed threaded mounts, locking collars and locking rings, Elite poles offer locking with a simple half turn of the wrist. Additionally, the fixed threaded mounts and locking collars incorporate a debris blocking ring to help keep unwanted material out of the locking mechanism.

The Elite series boom pole comes with a removable top screw to allow for quick and easy mounting of your various microphones. These top screws also incorporate a clever cable slot for easy and quick screw changes or cable installations. Top screws are extensively machined to reduce weight in non-critical areas.

The heel end of the Elite boom poles feature a fixed, lightweight aluminum threaded mount that is compatible with the various end caps available. These end caps include an end cap that incorporates a robust rubber bumper (Fig. A), a male XLR bottom for use with internal coiled cable assemblies(Fig. B), a right angle XLR bottom for use with internal coiled cables and plug on transmitters (Fig. C) and an end cap that features an easy-flow cable exit for use with straight cables (Fig. D). All of these specialized end caps are machined from aluminum and are thus virtually unbreakable. The end caps do not suffer from pulled and stripped threads.
