Questions about KUFA Sports 6x14-Inch F13RW X 2

How much buoyancy does one float provide?

Answer: For one Ø4"x11" float the buoyancy is about 7Lb, For one Ø6"X14" float the buoyancy is about 12Lb.

Answer: I weigh 225 lbs. and one will hold me up. I've tested it in my neighbors swimming pool. I use two of them for my kayak outrigger, would probably hold up 400-500 lbs in the water. Totally safe. I sometimes put my grandkids in the kayak with me and the total weight is 300 plus lbs. No problem, they ride high in the water.

Answer: At least enough to hold up 100 feet of leaded. 3/8 line when used as a crab pot buoy.

Answer: Ok

Answer: 15lbs

The pictures shows 2. is that 2 floats on a qty:1 order? if i order qty 2 does that mean 4 floats?

Answer: I ordered what was supposed to be two pair also and received two single floats. I called Amazon customer service and they sent another single one. I have spent over 30 minutes on the phone with them and cannot get through to them that it is supposed to be a pair. What is truly frustrating is that I am partially disabled and cannot take the kayak out yet. I have spent over 2k on the kayak and accessories, every cent of that here on Amazon, and it is as dry as the day I bought it. They are also deleting my comments, as I have answered this several times and it keeps going away.

Answer: Yes.that's the way my order was.I ordered gty. 2 and got 4 .just what I needed.

Answer: yes qty of 1 = 2floats

Answer: i am sorry for the confusion . I was ti receive 2 floats only one arrived.

Answer: Yes, one order is for 2pcs.

Answer: Yes. Two per order

Answer: Yes, It is for 2.

Answer: Yes, you will receive four floats with a quantity of two order.

can anyone tell me how much they weigh. thanks

Answer: Approx 1 1/2 lbs each

what is the hole ID dimension?

Answer: I shoved 3/4" pvc pipe in there to make an outrigger, it is slightly tight but that is better than loose.

Answer: I think 1 1/4"

Do the bouys come with a stem to attach the line to?

Answer: No they do not, they are however hollow so I. would just use pvc pipe for the stem and an eye bolt to attach line to.

Answer: No! U can make a stem using pvc

Answer: No just a hole running from one end to the other. Great video's on you-tube on how to correctly tie a crab float. It's easy

Answer: No, they have a hole through them that’s the size of 3/4 pvc so you can string it up that way, I turned these into stabilizers for my kayak.

Answer: There is a pvc pipe in the center of the bouts good quality

Answer: No

Will these lie horizontally in the water or vertically?

Answer: They will lay horizontally in the water. The entire float is made of the same Styrofoam material with one end tapered and painted red.

Answer: Completely depends on your application. I made stabilizers with these for my kayak, and they lay horizontally on the water. But if you tie weight to one end or the other it will stand vertically in the water if you want it too.

Answer: It will horizon in the water unless you put a weight on the bottom.THANKS!

Answer: I use them horizontally. If you anker them ,they can stand vertical.

Answer: I used them horizontally connected to a PVC rigging to keep kayaks from tipping over.

Answer: They lie horizontally, equal weight on both ends.

Answer: Horizontal

Answer: Yes either way depending on your application or how you want to use them.

What size should i get to use for a stablizing system on 14ft canoe?

Answer: I would stay with this size they are 6" in diameter and about 14" long. I mounted mine on the center thwart. I used 3/4" pvc to go through the floats you will need to use lubricant as it is a tight fit.

Answer: I use 4 of the 6x14s to stabilize my 18ft canoe

Answer: The ones I got was 8" dia. Works well with a 10' yak. If you can get 10" I think they would be fine. Also depends on your weight

Answer: No clue. But, I would say go with the largest size available especially if you're going to do outriggers. I would think it's better to have a little more than you'd really need than not enough. These are pretty buoyant but I'm not sure how mounting them to your canoe and the lateral force of rocking side to side would affect them. In that case more flotation would probably be better. Good luck!

Answer: I have 2 ea (6 x 14) on both sides of my 12 1/2 ft fishing kayak.

Answer: The big one is better

My item is indicating that it has been delivered, but I have not received it. Can someone help?

Are they polystyrene or polyurethane foam?

Answer: My guess would be Polystyrene. I just use them for anchor floats (locators) and after a couple of years they still look new.

Answer: Just regular painted foam . DONT BUY THEM !

Answer: I believe they are polyurethane foam but not absolutely sure.

Answer: They’re very dense I would say poly styrene

What size hole is in the middle?

everyone has given a different hole size. what is the actual hole size diameter? is it different for the two sizes of floats?

Answer: It is one inch. Sometimes a one inch piece of PVC pipe is tight getting thru them. I have four of them and each one is a tiny bit different in diameter. That is just how they come from the manufacturer. But figure one inch in diameter.

Answer: Different maker have the different hole diameter. our current inventory's hole diameter is 1".

Answer: I was able to use 3/4" pvc through the holes, when I got to the painted side tool a little more push, but fit great, 1/2" pvc had too much play

What is the diameter of the hole?

Answer: The whole is 1.05" diameter. I have used them for kayak outriggers and I have used 3/4" Schedule 40 PVC with an O.D. of 1.05" and it fits perfectly.

Answer: I have purchased four of these and the diameter varies on each one. It is suppose to be one inch but on a couple of them the hole is actually slightly less than one inch and I had to drill it out a bit to fit my 1 inch pvc pipe through them. Was not to fix however.

Answer: one inch

Answer: LOL, that’s funny. Price change happens all the time. You pay the current price at the time of checkout. No look backs.

Answer: Don't be a cheapskate. You either need them or you don't. ????

What is the buoyancy weight for one buoy? I.e., how much weight is required to sink one buoy?

Answer: The idea is not to sink it. One hundred feet of leaded line hanging under it to a crab pot will not sink it. This I know. Hope this helps.

Is the exterior durable, and does the paint flake?

Answer: The surface is durable keep in mind these are high density Styrofoam so although they are durable they will dent if hit hard enough. I haven't had any problems with the paint flaking but I did repaint mine to match my canoe I have used them a lot and don't have any complaints.

Answer: Its extremely durable and the paint doesn't seem to flake, Has a clear coat on it making it waterproof...

Would two of the 5 by 11 inch floats on each side of a 10’6” kayak stabilize it enough to stand up and fish out of?

Answer: I have 2 of the 6x14 on each side of my 12' kayak they work great i can stand up and float the river bowfishing

Answer: I also might mention that I use the 14x6 floats on my canoe.

Answer: yes I use these on a 17 foot canoe and I stand very confidently and cast but you need to make sure they are adjusted to be in contact with the water when you stand.

Answer: NO

Can you cut them with a saw

Answer: It's Styrofoam, yes you can easily cut it with a saw, even with a knife.

Answer: Yes, but use a fine tooth blade to avoid shredding.

Answer: Yes, I even drilled out the centers on mine

How much buoyancy does one float provide? One answer states 15lbs... This does not seem correct.

Answer: For one Ø4"x11" float the buoyancy is about 7Lb, For one Ø6"X14" float the buoyancy is about 12Lb.

Answer: I don't know the total weight, but two will hold me up and I weigh 225 lbs. that is two floats. Me and my kayak weigh 270 lbs. and they float us just fine.

Answer: I really can't say about buoyancy because I have used these floats for an outrigger system on my kayak. I am very satisfied with their quality and performance. I hope this helps.

Answer: Sorry- do not know. We are using them to keep commercial cast netter a away from our boat lift.

How many lbs of buoyancy does each of these floats provide?

Answer: I am not positive but I did see a video that claimed 50 lbs per float.

Product reviews of KUFA Sports 6x14-Inch F13RW X 2

thunderchild03 : Good value

Great item for the money

Amazon Customer : Would not buy again.

I bought the 12" version. The hole thru the center was over an inch, and inconsistent amongst the 4 i bought. They look to be cheaply made and doubt they will hold up very long. Wont buy them again....and wont buy any from Amazon, as none of them appear to be of any quality.

Devin Muhle : Great kayak floats.

I purchased these for kayak outriggers like others and they work great. They are nice and solid. The holes aren’t entirely uniform so I really had to force the pvc through one of the floats. The lengths can also be a little off so if you’re very anal about it, some might be a couple inches longer or shorter than the others.

Ken : Going to be used as outriggers on a kayak.

The center hole is not uniform. A 3/4" piece of PVC got stuck about half way through. I had to work at it to get it the rest of the way. The other 3 I used a 1 1/8" hole saw and a drill bit extension to bore out the hole. Works fine now.

Amazon Customer : Great Product

Exactly what I expected, these make excellent kayak outrigger floats.

J : Five Stars

Work great

Ken : Going to be used as outriggers on a kayak.

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious : Wow!

To expensive for what they are quality is poor and way to expensive. Should be $3.99 ea.

Robert L Taylor : Floats

Perfect

6 Gun Can : They float the rope (at least one end)

Purchased these for a crabbing trip off the coast of Washington because regs state only one name is allowed on each float, and I borrowed a set of pots. Price was right and shipping was prompt.
I'm sure these were as much responsible for catching limits ea. day as was the location and chicken thighs. lol

Lisa : Poorly made. Do not buy

This is a poorly made product. The paint peeled off after first use.

No Name : I set my traps out and these just bob away ...

I set my traps out and these just bob away...gives me more time to operate my icecream truck and clown gig.

Amazon Customer : Great Product

Exactly what I expected, these make excellent kayak outrigger floats.

Joshua : Very visible

Bought the 5”X11” buoys. It came two to a pack. I use them for crab traps here in Maryland waters. The paint is durable and is easy to spot.

Amazon Customer : Five Stars

Made a kyak outrigger with these they work great. search u tube for video to build.

RL : Easy to work with.

Made a pair of kayak stabilizers with them.

John Warren : Perfect

Worked perfect

Tuna Poker : Four Stars

There good.

Sean Thomas : Line hole is waaay too big.

The hole in the center the line passes through is waaay too big. It's like an inch wide. To tie the buoy into a location in the line, you have to make a very large knot.

Dan : great and work well

good

Ken : Going to be used as outriggers on a kayak.

Lisa : Poorly made. Do not buy

This is a poorly made product. The paint peeled off after first use.

Steve Whaley : Good price.

Worked good for my prject

Big J. : Excellent floats for canoe stabilizer

Very good floats for a canoe stabilizer that I am making. These are actually true to size unlike others listed here. These are very high quality and the deal on sale is very good. The hole in them fits the 3/4 pvc pipe perfect. I use 1-1/4 in pvc and use a bushing in the Tee to take it down to 3/4 inch for the floats and then glue a cap on the end.

Shambling Strider : Work good, last long time.

They seem durable and look good. I'm using them for high-vis rope floats.

G F : Good quality.

Exactly what I was expecting. Good quality.

Tuna Poker : Four Stars

There good.

yuniel : One Star

This was an used product sold as new.

ed : Used for crab cages

Durable and look forward for many seasons

CM : Disappointed, poor quality product

I ordered two sets of these, when they arrived I took them out of the package placed them all together and notice that they were not all the same size. Some of them had smudges of red paint covering the lightly colored areas, and worst of all two of them were not the same size as the others. Product is of very low quality, no attention to detail.I am quite disappointed and would not be ordering again from this vendor.

David Dixon : Wonderful

Wonderful

Traci : Sizes are incorrect.

I ordered 4 of these (2 sets) to use for a DIY canoe outrigger. None of the 4 sent are the same size... I haven't found my tape measure, but one definitely seems like 6x14 and the others seem as if they're closer to the 5x11's? Poor production.

CRM : Disappointed.

I've purchased KUFA items before and been happy with them, but these are garbage. One is significantly longer than 11" while the other is shorter than 11". Both are misshapen and feel extremely cheaply made. I'd be surprised if they even float, let alone last a single crab season. These won't be going anywhere near my crab pots. Not worth the risk.

Steve : Looks great, and they float!

Purchased two 5"x11" two-packs for canoe/kayak stabilizers. Looks great, and they float! Internal diameter is just under 3/4".

Robert L Taylor : Floats

Perfect

robert de leon : Five Stars

Good and solid for canoe stabilizers

Terry M : Nice product

Using as marker, highly visible

Derek : Just what I needed for kayak

Great product. Used to make kayak outriggers for my Bali 12 ss. Pvc slid right through the hole. I'm 6"1 and my easily excitable dog is 60lbs and we can both stand in the kayak with confidence while catching fish. I chose the bigger size for extra buoyancy but I'm sure they do add a smidgen of resistance. I don't need to paddle fast while fishing with a dog though.

Zensenbarg : Mediocre at best

Both buoys are discolored and deformed from the manufacturing process. Deformities appear to be related to material curing problems causing substantive cracks in material large enough for fingers to enter. Issues are clearly with manufacturing process and poor quality control based in type of problems and paint being applied over the obvious deformities/cracks. The white paint appears dirty, possibly due to buoys being handled before the paint cured. Low quality paint, buoys don't have the typical final smooth finish of higher quality buoys.

Derek : Just what I needed for kayak

jesse grizz : great floats for canoe outriggers

I used these floats to build stabilizers' for my canoe, they are the perfect size and 4 of these provide plenty of flotation to stabilize my 17' canoe.

Pedro : Float my boat

Bought to make a set of outriggers for my canoe so I can take it out on Lake Huron without worring about tipping over when a rogue wave comes.

James G. : Service was excellent. It would be nice if all Amazon shipping ...

They were everything I expected! Service was excellent. It would be nice if all Amazon shipping could be that good. They fit my needs exactly.

rosshoff : well made

Very well suited for my application( kayak outriggers) well made

Donald Ball : They are bouys.

Wish they were more alike. Inside diameters are a bit different, will have to drill them out.

Spudly1227 : Bigger ones work better

Used as outrigger for kayak fishing work great

loretta visconti : Exactly what I ordered

Good.

David D : Good quality and prompt shipping!

Very good quality and the color seems very bright and durable. Plus received it really quick

CM : Disappointed, poor quality product

Tuna Poker : Four Stars

There good.
