FAQs
What is the diameter of these banksticks?
The Fox Black Label Slim Banksticks have a diameter of 12mm.
Can I use these with other brand buzzbars?
Yes, but they are specifically designed to aesthetically and mechanically match the Fox Black Label Slim series.
Do these banksticks spin when I tighten my alarms?
No, they feature a unique flat edge on the inner bankstick that prevents the pole from twisting during use.
Are these suitable for saltwater fishing?
They are constructed from durable anodized aluminium, but should be rinsed with fresh water after exposure to salt to prevent corrosion.
How do I clean the banksticks?
Simply wipe them down with a damp cloth to remove mud or grit; ensure they are dry before storage.
Troubleshooting
Bankstick height slips during use
Ensure the moulded thumbscrew is fully tightened and that the inner pole is free of grit or sand.
Inner pole feels stuck or difficult to adjust
Clean the inner and outer shafts with a damp cloth and check for debris; ensure the thumbscrew is fully retracted before sliding the pole.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your Fox Black Label Slim Banksticks, loosen the moulded thumbscrew, extend the inner pole to your desired height, and tighten the screw until firm. For compatibility, these are designed to fit seamlessly with the Fox Black Label Slim Buzzbars; ensure any additional accessories, such as rod rests, are compatible with a 12mm shaft diameter. To maintain your banksticks, rinse them with fresh water after use in muddy or sandy conditions, especially after fishing in saltwater environments. Wipe dry with a clean cloth before storing to prevent any potential grit from entering the adjustment mechanism.
