● Made with some parameters of finishes and very strict levels for maximum adaptation to all types of mechanisms.
● Machining made with hard metal stainless tools to avoid contamination of the rod material and possible rust spots of the machined areas.
● SANDVIK steel hardened externally by an exclusive vacuum plasma process at high temperature. This process achieves that the external wait achieves a hardness around 60 HRC without harming the resistance to bending of the rod.
● The combination of the steel and the treatment, makes the specific weight of the Plasma rods is 12% superior to the steel traditionally used in rods, in such a way that we obtain benefits in terms of mass, reach and penetration equivalent to rods of superior diameter , with a clearly superior hydrodynamics. As an example, a Plasma rod Ø6,70 is equivalent to one of Ø7.20 of AISI630 or 17-4PH steel.
● Very strict control process (rod by rod prior to machining) to check the perfect rectilinity of the rod.
● AISI 301 stainless steel blade with 0.8 mm thickness. Mechanical resistance 1269 Nw / mm2 close to that of the rod itself. Pin and hole provided to the diameter of the rod between 2 and 2.5mm. Length in proportion to the rod; 55 mm in measures from 90 to 120 cm and 70 mm from 130 to 150 cm. Aletilla to two volumes, studied for maximum hydrodynamic penetration. Assembly with a slight recess of 1cm in length that integrates rivets into the profile and significantly improves the range of the rod. The recess does not imply loss of strength since the fin pin is provided according to the diameter of the rod. Torque of closed of the series aletilla (red color).
● Reinforced shell of the howitzer with curved radius of mechanization that make it almost impossible to break the rod at this traditionally weak point. Multipurpose design for metallic and Dyneema howitzers (we recommend polishing the profiles with steel cable for this use). Its design, together with the parameters used for the tempering, achieve an extraordinary resistance to breaking in the direction of opening of the notch of 190Nw and 40º angle.
● Specially resistant and high penetration shell tip.
