Mark S. I have used hardware from several different brands and this hardware alone makes switching to Armstrong foils worth it. It is incredibly tough and I have not been able to get one to strip yet. Honestly this hardware will strip whatever tool you are using before it strips itself. It is also very corrosion resistant. I leave roughly 8-10 Armstrong A+ foil kits fully assembled all season long with daily use in salt water and no fresh water rinses and at the end of the summer they come apart with little to no issues. I can't say that about the hardware from any other brand.

Chris S. I have used many different brands for hydrofoiling, and the titanium Armstrong screws are the best I have used. They easily screw and unscrew after use in salt water. As long as you rinse them with fresh water they will last a long time and continue to go together with ease. Other brands require being very careful not to strip or break the hardware, even with careful cleaning. The Armstrong titanium is top quality and won't break on you when you need it most.
