Splitboard Clip Stainless Steel Mounting Hardware

A splitboard is a specialized snowboard that can be separated into two skis for uphill travel in backcountry areas. This allows snowboarders to climb steep terrain without the need for ski lifts. Once at the top, the two halves can be reconnected to form a traditional snowboard for the descent, providing versatility for both climbing and riding.

Karakoram board clips are designed to securely attach the two halves of your splitboard together when in snowboard mode. Unlike traditional hooks, these clips offer a more reliable and efficient connection, ensuring that your board stays intact during your ride, which enhances performance and safety.

Flathead socket screws have a flat top and are designed to be driven with a socket wrench, allowing for a flush finish. They are crucial in splitboard assembly as they provide a secure and streamlined connection, minimizing the risk of snagging or damage while riding.

Nylock nuts feature a nylon insert that prevents them from loosening due to vibrations. This is particularly important in snowboarding, where equipment experiences a lot of movement. Using Nylock nuts ensures that your splitboard components remain securely fastened, enhancing safety and performance on the slopes.

Karakoram is known for its innovative designs and high-quality materials that enhance the performance and functionality of splitboards. Their products, including board clips and mounting hardware, are engineered for reliability and efficiency, making them a top choice for serious snowboarders looking to maximize their backcountry experience.

While some traditional snowboard hardware may fit, it is highly recommended to use specific splitboard components like Karakoram's board clips, flathead socket screws, and Nylock nuts. These are designed to withstand the unique stresses of splitboarding, ensuring better performance and safety in challenging conditions.
