Braca IV Shaft Options

Designed and used for many conditions and athletes’ sizes, these blades can be paired with any shaft. All of these shafts are possible options for athletes depending on distance and conditions and athlete requirements. When you select a blade size and construction you will see shaft choices.

For the Braca IV 750 any of the stiffer shafts – 03K, 04K, 06K, 17K, or possibly 19K are great options. As a general rule, the larger blades are oriented to sprinting so a stiffer shaft is used.

  • For marathon, we recommend 19K shaft
  • Surfski blades are usually paired with 19K and 21K shafts but contact us for a different shaft option
  • 19K shafts are available with metal or a durable plastic connector ideal for saltwater
  • 21K is always a durable plastic locker and 21K shafts have a smaller diameter
  • 04K and 06K are most popular for sprint or those wanting stiffer performance

These are the Braca IV shaft options:

Model = Stiffness (mm of deflection)

02K = 2.6 (stiffest)
03K = 2.7, 2.8
04K = 2.9, 3.0
06K = 3.1, 3.2
17K = 3.3, 3.4
19K = 4.5   (metal locker)
19K = 4.5                        
21K = 5.4 28mm dia. 
21K = 6.2 28mm dia.    (softest)

Braca IV Shaft Length

When you order your paddle you need to enter a Custom Length and select Hand Control.

Length: You can use any 5cm or 10cm length depending on the shaft.  See the image above or more info.

How to enter the custom paddle length:

  • For 02K to 17K enter a 5cm range (ex: 207 – 212 cm)
  • For the 19K or 21K enter a 10 cm range (ex: 207 – 217 cm)

All Braca IV paddles are available with a two-piece adjustable shaft that provides 5 cm or 10 cm of adjustability. This allows flexible adjustment of the overall paddle length and blade angle from 0° to 80° right or left in 5° increments. The system also allows you to disassemble the paddle into two parts for easy transportation.

Hand Control: Select Right or Left

Hand control determines which way to orient the locker, left-handed or right-handed.
