Features: Kilwell NZ Fibre-X 37kg Fully Rollered Detachable STRAIGHT Butt (DSB) Stand-up Game Rod.
Kilwell FibreX 37kg Stand up game fishing rod, features a small diameter, lightweight blank,
designed and manufactured in New Zealand. The blank is built using Triaxial carbon cloth
incorporating Xantu Nano fibre plus nano particle resins giving the rod a dramatic increase in
flexural lifting power without increasing weight to the rod.
The Xantu material acts as a barrier against fracturing when the resin and carbon reach breaking point,
effectively increasing the strength of the blank, and reduces the chance of blank breakage
caused by anglers 'high sticking' the rod.
This rod is hand assembled in Rotorua using;
Tri-axial carbon blank incorporating Xantu.Layer nano-technology
Black Aftco wind on roller guides
Black Aftco wind on roller tip
Black detachable ALPS aluminium STRAIGHT butt
Ethylene Vinyl Acetate EVA foregrips
Underbound and overbound guides

ABOUT XANTU.LAYER CONSTRUCTION
In a world first, Kilwell have combined nano particle resin with Xantu.Layer electrospun nanofibre in a fishing rod blank.
Nanofibres are defined as fibres with diameters less than 1000 nanometers .
Xantu.Layer is a polymer hybrid of continuous nanofibres forming a non-woven web.
This layer bonds with nano resin and carbon fibre to create a rod blank
featuring a dramatic increase in flexural lifting power, without increasing weight.
