Sky Shark 5PT
Sky Shark PT Series tubes are a stiff and lightweight tapered tube made of wrapped carbon fiber. They are as stiff as the P Series, offering great strength-to-weight performance for sport kites, but are not as durable, particularly in high winds.
When building with PT tubes: 2PT, 3PT, 5PT, and 7PT at 32.5” or 40” you should always cut from the small end. Note that there is an extra buildup of material that is 1.5” to 2” long on the large end of these tubes to make them stronger for ferruling them together. This means that if you go past the build up with the ferrule being used it could cause the wall of the tube to split
