Guru N-Gauge Power XS Zero 500 Margin 10m Pole

Description

The Guru N-Gauge Power XS Zero 500 Margin 10.0m Pole is the heavy-hitting sibling of the N-Gauge Pro range, engineered for demanding commercial and Carpodrome environments. While many margin poles sacrifice finesse for strength, the XS Zero 500 maintains the high-end feel and recovery Guru is known for. At 10.0m, it offers a balance of reach and raw power, making it a choice for bagging up in the reeds or wrestling big carp from snaggy undergrowth. Built on the same mandrel as the longer N-Gauge poles, it is fully interchangeable, allowing N-Gauge owners to swap sections or top kits seamlessly. The pole is tested to the limits on the European Carpodrome circuit, designed to withstand the high-torque pressure of heavy elastics and large commercial carp. The included True Extension provides the exact reach required while maintaining structural integrity and balance. The ZERO400 Carp Power kits come with a 5.8mm bore, ready to house the thickest hollow elastics without cutting back, so you don't lose valuable pole length. Its shorter length and robust build also make it an exceptional first pole for juniors or newcomers who want reliability without the unwieldy weight of a 13m+ model. The top kits come pre-fitted with high-quality PTFE bushes, so once you have threaded your chosen elastic and attached a connector, you are ready to head to the bank. All sections and top kits are fully interchangeable across the N-Gauge range. The 5.8mm Carp Power kits are designed to handle the heaviest commercial elastics available, comfortably coping with 20+ ratings.
