Strut Set Escape V7-V8 13m PLKB AKPL4413S

Strut Set Escape V7-V8 13m PLKB AKPL4413S

Description:

The PLKB Strut Set for Escape V7–V8 13m is a direct-replacement inflatable strut assembly designed to restore the intended aerodynamic profile and structural integrity of the Escape V7 and V8 tube-kite models. Constructed from high-tenacity Dacron and ripstop polyester sailcloth with integrated TPU bladders, the struts combine low-stretch frame strength with airtight, abrasion-resistant inflation chambers. Reinforced load patches and thermally bonded seams increase durability under repeated launches, landings and high-line loads, while precision molding maintains consistent cross-section and aerodynamic shape for predictable handling. The design improves kite stability, depower response and overall longevity compared with worn or damaged original struts. Quick-access valves and service-friendly attachment points simplify repairs, maintenance and seasonal servicing. Compatible with OEM Escape V7 and V8 13m fittings and standard valve/patch repair kits.

Key Features:

• High-tenacity Dacron frame and ripstop polyester outer skin for excellent structural strength and tear resistance
• Integrated TPU bladders for airtight performance and easy inflation/deflation
• Thermally bonded seams and reinforced load patches for long-term durability under load
• Precision-molded profile preserves original aero shape for stable, responsive handling
• Quick-access inflation valves and standard attachment points for easy fitment and maintenance
• UV- and saltwater-resistant materials and coatings for extended life in marine environments
• Direct compatibility with Escape V7 and V8 13m kites — ideal for OEM replacement or upgrade
• Service-friendly design: repair kit compatible and straightforward to replace in the field or workshop
