CarbonLite field repairs
What can you do if your poles go wrong when you are away from home? If your tungsten tip comes loose you can glue it back in with Araldite or Super Glue. If your EVA handle should slide down the shaft we recommend using a contact adhesive such as EvoStick to secure it back in place. All of these adhesives can be found in most good hardware stores and quite often in well stocked Post Offices.
