Nauticam Carbon Fiber Float Arms 50mm x 200mm

Nauticam 50mm x 200mm (2in x 7.8in) Float Arm - Lifetime Warranty

Underwater photographers have long battled to make their camera systems neutrally buoyant in the water for a neutrally buoyant rig is easier to handle in the water and can be operated with one hand much easier than heavier rigs. Systems that are too heavy can result in arm strain and contribute to difficultly with buoyancy of the shooter. The Nauticam Carbon Fiber Float Arms series are manufactured from a high quality carbon fiber tubing with molded plastic end caps and machined aluminum balls. O-Ring seals ensure water tight integrity and each arm includes an aluminum spine that ties the entire assembly together, making the arm stronger than one machined from solid aluminum alone. This robust design is why Nauticam is able to guarantee these arms' watertightness for life!

Carbon fiber is five times as strong as steel, yet weighs about two-thirds less. Lighter means more net buoyancy for the same volume. This Nauticam Float Arm provides 160g of buoyancy. Fiber arms do not measurably compress even at 100 meters/330 feet, and look more streamlined than chunky foam blocks.
