Is there a carp rod on the market with as many features as the Century SGR (Stealth Graphene Reinforced). This series of rods offers you everything in one, from the graphene-reinforced matrix system and Autoclave technology to Generation 2 Anti-Twist technology, Titanium Gunsmoke guides and Ultralight blank in each of its respective test curves.
Graphene-reinforced
Century has developed a tailor-made combination of resin matrix and graphene. The resin matrix supports the loads generated on the rod by casting and play and, when reinforced with graphene, creates resilience and strength. When properly incorporated into the resin system, it has the ability to increase resilience far more effectively than one-dimensional (e.g. nanotubes) and zero-dimensional (e.g. nanoparticles) fortifiers, so we can make lighter rods with the high strength and robustness you'd expect from a Century carp fishing rod.
Generation 2 Anti-Twist Technology (Gen 2 AT-T) ?
The new technology used in the construction of the blank is highly innovative. It uses our own material, graphene, to create Generation 2 anti-twist technology in the tip section. Generation 2 AT-T resists this angular acceleration by inserting fibres at different angles into the rod wall. The result is a considerable increase in resistance to torsional loading and general twisting or screwing of the plug into the tip section. This is a major cause of inaccuracy, especially when casting over long distances, and is most often the main culprit behind guide misalignment and an undesirable increase in line friction.
Anti-Twist (Gen 2) technology for precision, reduced line drop and casting distance with less effort. Graphene-enhanced resin system - for a lighter blank while offering strength and robustness. Composite carbon tapers for ultimate playability in each respective test curve class. Autoclave technology for long-term performance retention. 1k-1k carbon weave all the way to the tip. Titanium SiC guides Stealth Finish Custom ALPS Black reel seat with laser-engraved Stealth logos Sealed with a scratch-resistant PTFE/silicone finish. A manufacturing pedigree immersed in world record casting and carbon composite technology for aerospace and motorsports. Blank and cane designed and manufactured in the UK
