Can You Replace a Broken Carbon Fiber Hiking Pole Section?
Yes, but only with an official replacement part from the manufacturer. Do not attempt DIY glue repairs. Contact the brand's customer service (e.g., Black Diamond, LEKI) with your pole's model and serial number. They often sell individual sections. This ensures perfect diameter, strength, and locking mechanism compatibility. The process usually requires basic tools to transplant the original grip and tip. While not cheap, it's safer and more cost-effective than replacing the entire pole. If the brand no longer stocks the part, the pole cannot be reliably repaired and should be retired.
