MODEL FA - GA
GRAPHITE ARBORS
Made of polyurethane, our GRAPHITE ARBORS are lighter than cork,
but unlike cork or tape bushings, are much harder. They give the rod
maximum sensitivity by transmitting the strike signal and lure action
from the blank through the reel seat, to the fisherman’s hands. Porous
surface enhances glue bonding.
GA arbors include glue channels on the outside surfaces and are less
likely to become loose between the blank and reel seat after continuous
use.
Standard I.D. can be reamed to fit a wide array of blank diameters.
Length: FA = 5.75” (146 mm), GA = 1” (25.4 mm)
Made of durable black graphite/nylon compound
- up to 75% lighter than brass gimbals.
Ribbed inside for firmer bonding. Can be used
with our detachable butt caps.
