Product Information
Full details
The Carp Spirit BLAX Angle Adaptor is an essential tool for carp anglers who require precise rod placement on uneven or challenging terrain. Crafted from high-grade aerospace aluminium, it allows for seamless 90-degree adjustments of bite alarms and rod rests when mounted between bank sticks and buzz bars. While it offers unmatched stability and professional-grade construction, users should note that it adds a small amount of height to the overall rod pod or bank stick configuration.

Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is the BLAX adaptor compatible with all buzz bars?
Yes, as long as your buzz bars utilize the industry-standard 3/8 BSF thread, this adaptor will fit.
Can I use this with my umbrella storm poles?
Yes, the unit is specifically designed to function as a storm pole adaptor for umbrella-style fishing shelters.
Does the trilobe screw come off entirely?
No, it features a no-loss design to prevent the screw from falling out and getting lost in the grass or mud.
What material is it made from?
The adaptor is manufactured from 6063 aerospace grade aluminium for a balance of strength and low weight.
How many adaptors do I need for a complete buzz bar setup?
You typically need one per bank stick to ensure each point of the buzz bar can be independently adjusted for maximum stability.
Troubleshooting
The adaptor slips under pressure
Ensure the trilobe screw is fully tightened and that the threads are free from sand or debris.
Thread does not fit the bank stick
Verify that your bank stick uses the standard 3/8 BSF thread; the BLAX is not designed for non-standard or metric threaded equipment.
Stiff adjustment mechanism
Clean the pivot point with a light silicone spray to ensure smooth movement.

Care and Maintenance:
