THE WEAR PARTS

There are several parts on your harpoon that must be considered wearing parts and should be replaced regularly. It is incredibly bitter that the harpoon does not work as it should on the day the dream fish swims by. Then the arrow must be sharp and straight, the elastics must be strong enough and the harpoon line must not be worn. You should check that the shock absorber is not black, then it can quickly break when you shoot with the harpoon.

Here is a table that shows you the right parts for your harpoon. You can click in the table to get straight to the right product in the online store. If, for example, you have a harpoon of a different brand than those in the table, look for one of the same length and with the same type of harpoon head. Then you can use the same parts on your harpoon in the vast majority of cases.

Tip: You can go up a couple of cm on the elastic if you want a harpoon that is easier to load. In the list below there is a link to recommended products, therefore some items may be different from what you received as original parts. Follow the table and you will get parts that fit and are recommended by us.
