Graphite 5-section, extends to 18'3", collapses to 55.5", 2.2 lb, removable headpiece, sure-grip divots, rubber bumper, uncabled, made in USA
The K-Tek KP18V Mighty Boom is a professional-grade 5-section graphite boompole, tailored for sound recordists who need maximum reach and reliable performance in demanding environments. Extending up to 18 feet 3 inches (5.56 meters) and collapsing to 55.5 inches (141 cm), this uncabled boompole balances light weight (2.2 lbs / 1 kg) with impressive rigidity and strength-ideal for location work where microphone stability and precision handling are critical.
Constructed in the USA, the KP18V boasts a removable headpiece, allowing for easy conversion between uncabled, internally coiled, or top-mounted wireless configurations without the need for soldering. Its removable rubber bumper bottom enhances durability and adaptability for varied field conditions. Enhanced handling comes courtesy of sure-grip oval divots and a smoothly gliding tube finish that supports fast and quiet adjustments. The KP18V is fully compatible with optional accessories like the KPCK18V coiled cable kit and KPCCR right-angle XLR module, making it a versatile and customizable tool for professional audio capture.
