The 39-year-old won for the fourth time on Sunday at Seven Mile Beach.
The star Hobart triathlete claimed his home race in a time of 1:56:40, nearly six minutes ahead of nearest rival Craig Shepherd.
Mark Dawson finished third overall in 2:09.32.
Only Launceston pair Ali Foot winning at Coles Bay and Nathan Jackson at St Helens - when Armstrong did not race - prevented the state series champion from etching his name on the silverware in all six races.
Danica Bumford was the first female across the line in 2:25:46.
The 41-year-old edged out Pia Austin for the win by two minutes and 50 seconds.
Sarah Fitzgerald in 2:36:13 rounded up the top three.
Junior Jack Direen finished first in the sprint series race while William Jones snared the super sprint.
