ST CROIX rod blanks

ST CROIX rod blanks

ST CROIX carbon fishing rod blanks Australia, are the essential component to building the finest graphite fishing rods. With such a strong following from rod builders all around the world, these graphite rod blanks are a favourite among Australian rod builders and fisherman alike.

ST CROIX Blank Technologies include:

INTEGRATED POLY CURVE® (IPC®) TECHNOLOGY

Developed exclusively by ST. CROIX, Integrated Poly Curve® (IPC®) tooling technology has rapidly become the engineering leader in rodmaking. Designed to eliminate all transitional points in the rod blank, IPC-engineered rods feature smoother actions, increased strength and greater sensitivity.

ADVANCED REINFORCING TECHNOLOGY™ (ART™)

 Advanced Reinforcing Technology™ (ART™) is an exotic carbon fibre material that adds a magnitude (10X) of strength with virtually no increase in blank diameter or weight. ART significantly improves the hoop strength of the blank by preventing it from deforming or “ovaling” under a severe load, such as a powerful hook set or fish battle. ART is also a critical part of our slim-profile ferrule design.

TAPER ENHANCEMENT TECHNOLOGY

After several years of R&D and testing, St. Croix has perfected an innovative new Taper Enhancement Technology (TET) that begins with precision-cut, curved blank patterns made possible by a state-of-the-art computerized pattern cutting machine. When combined with IPC-mandrels, these unique patterns create blanks with better actions and improved sensitivity. This pattern design and cutting technology is a dramatic departure from traditional straight-line patterns cut by hand. TET will debut in the all-new Legend Xtreme series.
