Manufacturer update · verified information

What the black finish update means

The color update gives buyers a direct choice between a low-contrast black finish and the established olive finish without changing the underlying configuration of either model. Both Poloz-4 and Poloz-5 use cotton webbing and stainless-steel fittings.

Zenitco also identifies a revised length-adjustment unit as the feature that separates Poloz-4 and Poloz-5 from the earlier Poloz-2 and Poloz-1 designs. The manufacturer describes the cotton webbing as resistant to melting when it touches heated equipment components.

How to choose between the two models

  • Choose Poloz-4 when a dedicated two-point layout matches your intended setup.
  • Choose Poloz-5 when switching between one-point and two-point configurations matters.
  • Select the color separately: black and olive are finish choices, not different operating versions.
  • Verify attachment points: confirm the adjoining interfaces and mounting hardware before ordering.
Selection note: This update concerns color availability and the verified configuration differences between the two models. Always match the sling and its attachment hardware to the exact interfaces already present on your sporting setup.
