Titan - Aluminum Sport Begleri
Titan - Aluminum Sport Begleri
Aroundsquare's "Titan" begleri are probably our best known design, and they remain one of the most popular in our range, due to the comfortable and high performing shape of the beads. If you're new to begleri, check out our begleri page for some basic information.
The Titans were AO2’s first large scale solo release, and they remain at the core of the lineup. Like all Titans, the AL Sports are dome topped, with a rounded bottom, and a straight, knurled barrel for excellent control and extremely smooth play. The 2018 Titans have been updated with a 3.5mm “Goldilocks” bore, suitable for both 275 and 550 paracord, and an updated colour range. They are 20mm by 20mm, and weigh about 13g per bead, making them slightly larger, and considerably lighter than the titanium version.
The Titan AL Sport begleri from Aroundsquare are precision machined from aluminum, and are anodized and polished to provide a smooth finish with a little bit of extra durability. However, please note that aluminum is a soft metal, and the surface of these will get dinged and scratched over time. This aging process gives them a great texture which helps with grip and bead control, and eliminates the need for machined knurling.
They come with a couple extra strings, a couple stickers, an info card, and a canvas carry bag. Stickers, bag, and cord colours may not be as shown, since these change with availability.
Details:
- 20mm by 20mm dimension for the beads
- Drilled out with a 3.5mm bore for compatibility with either 275 or 550 paracord
- Total set weight is around 27.2g including cord
