A NEW LEVEL OF VALUE FOR MONEY IN FUJI’S FLAGSHIPK-SERIES GUIDES’

FazLite did not ease onto the scene in Fuji’s traditional, time-tested frames. This time, Fuji went all in from the outset. They have added FazLite across the board to their most popular K-Series guide collection, and to make it even better, they are offering it in the newest CC and BC finishes. The FazLite guides are perfect for the value for money segment of rod building featuring cutting edge technologies like tangle-free performance and even the latest KR Concept on spinning rods – and with new CC and BC finishes you can boost corrosion control over regular stainless guides.

‘THE GOLD STANDARD FOR OVER 20 YEARS’

SUPER HEAT CONDUCTIVITY

SiC has the overwhelming heat conductivity which is 4.6 VT. High heat happens at the point of contact between line and ring when the line is under drag pressure. SiC has fast heat dissipation.

SUPER HARDNESS

The hardness of SiC is almost as hard as a diamond. It is twelve times as hard as stainless. When a line has sand and salt stuck on it, it is like a long file. SiC, has extreme hardness.

SUPER SMOOTHNESS,LOW FRICTION

The SiC ring is diamond-polished. It scores very high in an abrasion resistance when testing against hard rings (Fuji experiment). The line damage remarkably decreased and the color does not change or rust, neither. SiC has ultra-low friction.

SUPER LIGHTNESS

The SiC ring is one third lighter than stainless. That gives it excellent properties when building finesse rods and casting rods. Sic has ultimate lightness.

The Supreme Ring .......

Mission: Maximise blank performance, maximise line performance.

Fuji remain at the cutting edge of the rod component market and have been working on a new material which delivers a lighter and stronger fishing rod guide. 32 years since they developed the SiC ring, Fuji have created TORZITE, a task specific ceramic. Witness the beginning of the next generation.

Guides

The strength of TORZITE allows builders to employ the thinnest and most perfectly shaped ring. The stronger, ultra thin material maintains impact strength equal to SiC.

Tube Arbors

CORK TUBES

Cork arbors can be used in every Fuji Reel seat made as well as the inside of a carbon tube, these arbors give you better feeling through the blank, make building the rod easier and the end result is a reel seat that won’t twist on the blank if the tape gives away. Below is the range of arbors we have in stock. Cork Arbors comes in packs of 2 and the I/D is in increments of 0.5mm, the O/D is designed specifically to fit each reel seat or carbon tube so there is a range of types as below, you order based on reel seat and the blank diameter.

CARBON TUBES

Carbon Tubes come in 5 different carbon patterns / colours. These tubes are made specifically for each Fuji reel seat. They are designed so you use the tube under the seats and then attached the tube / seat to the blank either using traditional method or cork arbors designed to fit the tubes.

By using Carbon Tubes you can easily get that exposed blank feeling and look of the high end rods without having to have a blank that exactly fits the reel seat, making the new reel seats now a universal fit with the carbon tubes.

CG3 BLANKS

The genesis of CG3 blanks stems from an extensive wealth of experience cultivated over countless years of angling in the challenging Australian conditions, with a keen focus on local fish species. This invaluable knowledge is further fortified by decades of expertise in blank design, manufacturing, and rod crafting. CG3 blanks represent the culmination of these years of dedication and passion.

Crafted with cutting-edge materials and advanced manufacturing techniques, CG3 blanks are tailor-made to excel in the unique Australian environment. They are not merely products; they are purpose-built tools, meticulously designed to serve specific angling needs.

Every individual CG3 rod blank undergoes a rigorous design process, often involving multiple iterations and prototypes, to achieve a precise action that aligns with its intended application. Rigorous field testing is a non-negotiable step in our development process. Each blank is transformed into a fully-fledged rod and subjected to real-world scenarios before mass production commences.

During the journey from conception to production, each and every blank is subjected to meticulous testing across predetermined criteria. This ensures uniformity in straightness, consistent tip and butt diameters, and balanced weight throughout the entire model range. Consequently, anglers can trust that every CG3 rod offers a consistent, reliable performance with the specific strength-toweight ratios needed to conquer their angling objectives.

In essence, CG3 blanks are not just fishing equipment; they are a testament to our unwavering commitment to crafting superior tools for passionate anglers who demand nothing less than excellence. With CG3, you’re not just fishing; you’re mastering the art of angling with precision-engineered companions by your side.

Special Butt Section Notes

Note: Due to the production nature of some blanks, there are some that have a section that is to be glued into place, this is not a tapered join that can be left, it is a blank production method to keep costs down and installed under the grip usually. Blanks that have this are noted in the no of pieces as + x and there is a length in the specs labeled Length X as below diagram indicates Length X

Please glue butt on indicated blanks.

Egi Series

The blanks are a multi taper designed specifically to impart vital movement to the jig quickly while still having the flexibility to handle the lunging runs of squid.

Estuary Series

Tailor made for the Australian estuary angler this blank delivers the refinement, precision, and lightness that all serious estuary anglers look for in a rod. A rod that is simply flawless in design and stunning in performance.

LeadERS IN INNOVATION AND TECHNOLOGY

In the pursuit of angling excellence, a pivotal question arises: where does the fine line between maximum strength and ultimate lightness intersect, and which materials offer the optimal strength-to-weight ratio? This conundrum ignited our quest, leading to the development of our revolutionary Triple Layer Carbon blank technology.

Crafting a fishing rod blank presents a delicate balance. Excess resin yields a robust yet unwieldy and cumbersome rod, while insufficient resin renders it brittle, unable to withstand the rigors of battling formidable aquatic adversaries. Our mission? To pinpoint the precise juncture where strength and weight converge to create the consummate blank.

The result of our relentless innovation is a blank composed of three distinct layers. The top and bottom layers counter each other at opposing angles, while the middle layer stands vertically. Painstaking experimentation with carbon cloth technology led us to the perfect configuration, maximizing resilience, flexibility, and striking force. This ingenious design minimizes twisting, enabling the blank to transmit energy and power seamlessly down the line, minimizing loss of force. The outcome: reduced fatigue for the angler and shorter battles with formidable fish.

To enhance strength and saturate the layers, every blank requires resin. We’ve meticulously honed resin recipes tailored to each unique range of blanks. Our cutting-edge technology empowers us to machine roll the blanks, ensuring the ideal resin distribution for each rod’s intended purpose. The result? Precise blanks devoid of internal imperfections that could lead to breakage, while maintaining the perfect weight for each rod.

To culminate the process, all our blanks undergo a hot press baking procedure. This pressurized treatment melds the layers into a single, robust, lightweight entity. It solidifies the resin and begets a singular, resilient blank.

The outcome is clear: our Triple Layer Carbon blanks epitomize power, lightness, and swift responsiveness. Each one represents a testament to our unwavering commitment to delivering the finest angling tools, where strength and weight harmoniously converge to redefine your fishing experience.

ROD TECHNOLOGIES

The blank we created has three layers, the bottom and top layer are angled in opposition to each other. The middle layer is laid vertically.

To add strength and wet the layers all blanks need resin. We have experimented with different blank purposes and have developed a resin recipe for each individual range.

All our blanks are hot press baked. This is a pressurised process that heats all the layers to bind them as one. It hardens the resin and creates a single strong, light blank. Power, lightness and a quick reacting force.

FUJI EZ THREAD AND BOBBIN

Say goodbye to tedious and time-consuming rod wrapping! The Fuji EZ Thread is an ingenious thread designed to simplify the wrapping process. With its intuitive design and user-friendly features, even beginners can repair broken guides effortlessly. EZ Thread adapts to any rod type and size, accommodating various thread thicknesses for complete customization. The thread lays flat, reducing gaps, and allowing for a repair to be made from the guide foot down to the blank as opposed to the traditional blank onto guide foot method. This makes it easier to hold the guide in place while binding.

The threads come in two types, an opaque and transparent in a small selection of popular colours. A perfect complement to the EZ Thread, the Fuji EZ Bobbin is a game-changer in thread management. This innovative bobbin streamlines the thread control process, ensuring seamless thread release and preventing tangles during rod wrapping. The EZ Bobbin ensures a consistent and smooth release of thread, preventing snags, knots, and tangles for uninterrupted wrapping. It has an easy-to-use tension adjustment mechanism allowing users to customize thread tension according to their preferences, guaranteeing flawless thread application.
