(It can likely be used with any sinker size when combined with an adjustable adapter) ▪ Length: 30 cm ○ The bamboo has been heat-treated and oil-extracted. ○ After shaping to achieve the desired action, multiple coats of transparent (suki) lacquer have been applied to enhance water resistance, strength, and appearance. The transparent lacquer has a clear brown color, resulting in a beautiful finish. (The lacquer is said to gain more luster and strength over 20 years) ○ The guides are made of 0.35mm stainless steel. ○ The tip is painted with red fluorescent paint. ○ The butt diameter is 5mm aluminum pipe, the same general size as Shimano and Daiwa rods. ★ Heat-treating bamboo changes its internal composition and increases its strength.
