  2. Fishing rod - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fishing_rod

    Traditional fishing rods are made from a single piece of hardwood (such as ash and hickory) or bamboo; while contemporary rods are usually made from alloys (such as aluminium) or more often high-tensile synthetic composites (such as fibreglass or carbon fiber), and may come in multi-piece (joined via ferrules) or telescoping forms that are more ...

  3. Carbon fibers - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_fibers

    Carbon fibers or carbon fibres (alternatively CF, graphite fiber or graphite fibre) are fibers about 5 to 10 micrometers (0.00020–0.00039 in) in diameter and composed mostly of carbon atoms. [1] Carbon fibers have several advantages: high stiffness, high tensile strength, high strength to weight ratio, high chemical resistance, high ...

  4. Fly fishing tackle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly_fishing_tackle

    Fiberglass was popular for rods constructed in the years following World War II and was the "material of choice" for many years. However, by the late 1980s, carbon/graphite composite rods (including premium graphite/boron and graphite/titanium blends) had emerged as the materials used by most fly rod manufacturers. These premium rods offer a ...

  5. Graphite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphite

    The mechanical properties of carbon fiber graphite-reinforced plastic composites and grey cast iron are strongly influenced by the role of graphite in these materials. In this context, the term "(100%) graphite" is often loosely used to refer to a pure mixture of carbon reinforcement and resin , while the term "composite" is used for composite ...

  6. Ugly Stik - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ugly_Stik

    The construction methodology yields a product that is robust yet pliable. The incorporation of graphite within the fiberglass wraps further enhances sensitivity, offering anglers the necessary strength, stiffness, and responsiveness for effective fishing. [2] [3] Ugly Stik got its name from the "ugly" appearance of their first rods.

  7. Carbon-fiber reinforced polymer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon-fiber_reinforced...

    A carbon-fiber and Kevlar canoe (Placid Boatworks Rapidfire at the Adirondack Canoe Classic) CFRPs are now widely used in sports equipment such as in squash, tennis, and badminton racquets, sport kite spars, high-quality arrow shafts, hockey sticks, fishing rods, surfboards, high end swim fins, and rowing shells.
