Shimano Tribal 50 Cal Rod

Shimano Tribal 50 Cal Rods, The Tribal 50 CAL offers outstanding performance, combined with a fashionable retro look. Built using ultra slim blanks and available in a wide range of balanced test curves, the Tribal 50 CAL uses HPC (High Pressure Carbon) technology which offers a massive increase in compression strength. The result is more responsiveness and reliability when distance casting. A newly designed reel seat ensures the reel and rod work as a solid unit, even under extreme casting conditions and the rods are finished with a slim-line Fuji tip guide to reduce line wraps. High Pressure Carbon: During the heating process of any rod or pole the resin can be pushed to the surface of the blank which may cause an uneven distribution, resulting in weak spots. With High Pressure Carbon (HPC), pressure is applied to the blank during the heating process, forcing the resin to remain inside and ensuring an even spread. The result is amazing, creating a blank which can be up to 40% stronger than blanks made without HPC. Biofibre: Adding Biofibre reinforces the carbon fibres in all directions. This gives outstanding strength, shock resistance, lightness and power.
