superior strength and a lighter load. Ths futuristic material has four times the strength of aluminum with only half the weight. Plus magnesium is easily recycled and remains the eighth most abundant material on earth.
Pure durability. Heated to melting point and injectd into a form, "extruded" aluminum comes out 100-percent pure and maintains it's true shape no matter how much wear and tear you inflict. Union was first to bring the ex-trusion process to snwoboarding and remains the sole company using it.
A premium upgrade to any kit. Extremely lightweight and supremely strong. Union Carbon is a "full carbon" through and through- not just cosmetic. If you demand high quality and precision, carbon components are for you.
Lighter, stronger, radder. By increasing the thickeness of the natural surface oxide layer, the anodizing process beefs up a metal's strength by 30-percent and lessens overall weight. In other words, bulletproof binding hardware that won't weigh you down. Anodized aluminum nuts and bolts come with every top-end Union Binding.
The most commonly used hardware is made from "mild steel" that has a property class of only 4.6. But considering how much stres a binding goes through, Union implements only high-strength steel (featuring a property class of 8.8) for our hardware. Why? Safety, dependability, and quality.
A collection-wide commitment to quality. Union uses only the highest quality Dupont Zytel ST nylon throughout our entire binding collection. The result is the strength, security, and the confidence of a lifetime warranty on all baseplates.
Unions new natural fiber material is an extremely durable and eco-friendly fabric that seems to get better and better with use.
