What material is a good fishing rod?

At present, carbon fiber composite rods are mainly carbon mixed rods and carbon rods.

Fishing rods can be divided into bamboo rods, reed rods, glass fiber reinforced plastic rods, carbon rods, glass and carbon fiber composite rods (carbon mixed rods) and so on.

Bamboo poles are divided into old bamboo poles and new bamboo poles.

The so-called old-fashioned bamboo fishing rod, as its name implies, was mainly made of thin bamboo after simple processing before the invention of FRP rod, and its manufacturing method is as follows:

& lt 1 & gt； Material selection: Bamboo, Phyllostachys pubescens or Pleioblastus angustifolia, which is straight, long and grows for more than 3 years, is selected in winter, because bamboo is dormant in winter and stops or rarely absorbs water. This kind of bamboo is resistant to insects and durable.

& lt2> Practice: After cutting the bamboo, smooth the knots, place them in the shade for 30 -50 days, and then partially smoke and bake the bent parts when they are half dry. Pay attention to the factors of time and smoking area, and keep turning and moving back and forth during smoking and baking until the bamboo surface "sweats". Don't smoke and bake at one point for too long to avoid burning. Straighten quickly after smoking and baking. Don't use too much force when straightening. After straightening, cool it with cold water or wet cloth, then hang it on the first section of the pole with a small rope, and hang a falling object of 1 kg -2 kg at the bottom. The falling time can be controlled by yourself (half a year is appropriate), and it can be used after it is completely dried.

In the new bamboo fishing rod, the general practice is to select several bamboo rods with better quality, cut the best part into several sections and press them together to form the rod body. It is more common that six bamboos are pressed into hexagonal rods, and some are pressed into round rods, which are also expensive in terms of excellent material selection and exquisite workmanship.

Jiang Wei rod, before 1950s, Japan made a fishing rod with Jiang Wei, which was later classified as plug-in type (parallel type). It was the best fishing rod in the world at that time, which made up for the shortcomings of short fishing distance and inconvenient carrying of the old bamboo rod at that time. It quickly became popular in China, and I believe many fishermen are familiar with this kind of fishing rod, which is still used by fishermen today.

Glass fiber reinforced plastic rod

Glass fiber reinforced plastic rod is also called glass fiber fishing rod, glass fiber resin rod and vibrating fishing rod. Made of glass fiber satin cloth, impregnated with epoxy resin and aldehyde resin and cured at high temperature (hollow tube or solid rod). With good toughness and elasticity, it is the first generation product of modern synthetic materials and industrial production in fishing rod production. Glass fiber fishing rod has good insulation performance. The more glass fiber content in the rod body, the softer the rod will be. After the fishing rod is formed, the color of the rod body is yellow-brown and then painted. At present, carbon black powder is added to the resin solution of fishing rods produced in China and some countries and regions, on the one hand, it is mixed with carbon fiber cloth (black) to obtain the same color; On the other hand, some manufacturers pretend to be carbon fiber or carbon-containing fishing rods with dyed black glass fiber cloth, so pay attention when buying. (For the identification method, please refer to the "Buy Fishing Rod" page of the fishing point. ) Compared with carbon rods, glass fiber reinforced plastic rods of the same size and model are slightly heavier than carbon rods and lose some sensitivity, but they have insulation that carbon rods do not have.

Glass fiber transparent rod

Also known as glass saturated resin rod. It is a bar made of unsaturated trees and resin impregnated glass fiber cloth and cured at high temperature. The production of this kind of fishing rod needs strict technology, especially because unsaturated resin and glass fiber cloth are melted separately, and the resin and glass fiber cloth are fully melted, so that its physical and chemical properties are improved in the process of high-temperature curing. The real fishing rod has excellent toughness and is the top grade of glass fiber rod.

carbon rod

Carbon rods, also known as carbon fiber rods, are made of high-tech carbon materials. It has electrical conductivity (Ω cm-1.5×10-3) and very good tensile strength (for example, the tensile strength in units of 12000 filaments is kg/mm2-400). At present, most carbon fiber fishing rods are made of shuttleless carbon fiber longitudinal pipe and cured by impregnating resin. The content of carbon fiber directly determines the value and quality of fishing rod. Generally, the carbon content is around 30%, 90% and 97%. T (ton) is the index of carbon fiber, and the material of ordinary carbon fishing rod is generally 24T carbon fiber cloth. Some poles are marked with "HVF", which means carbon fiber cloth, with strength of 30T-40T and high modulus. The higher the t value, the higher the strength and elasticity of the material. The fishing rod made of carbon fiber has the characteristics of light weight, firmness and high tensile strength, but special attention should be paid to preventing electricity when using it.
