DESCRIPTION

Stoked Double Hand rods offer outstanding value for the price. They are built with the same remarkable finish as the single hand versions. Undoubtedly one of the lightest rod ranges in its price bracket.

STOKED DETAILS

• Blanks are painted in a translucent olive/green color with a hint of metallic flakes.
• Cork handles with no rubber cork reinforcements. This reduces the levels of epoxy-resins needed in the grips.
• For the coatings on blank, guides and the mounting glue for grips and reel seat, we use a low-toxic Epoxy, tested and approved with extremely low levels of regulated chemicals. This also adds to a better working atmosphere in the assembly phase of production, reducing health hazardous odors to a minimum.
• Rods are mounted with eco-friendly PVD coated guides in gun smoke finish.
• Rod tube covers are made of recycled REPREVE polyester.
• The rod tubes are made of recyclable Polypropylene (PP), they are lighter and have 20% lower diameters than standard PVC tubes. This will save space and money when rods are transported both from the factory and by the user. Given its durability and the possibility to melt and reform into plastic pellets, PP is both reusable and recyclable for producing new goods.
• All rods are 4-piece.

REPREVE is the leading, most trusted, branded performance fibres made from recycled materials (including plastic bottles). Buy products made with REPREVE to make a difference.
