The wonderful process of making a graphite fishing rod. Why light as carbon fiber is difficult to popularize!

Once there was a kind of graphite vertical fishing rod, which was as light as a feather, but extremely tough. It can flexibly perceive the dynamics of fish, but it is not easy to crack. It is different from the traditional bamboo and metal poles, but the use of carbon fiber manufacturing. However, despite so many benefits, carbon fiber vertical fishing rods have been difficult to widely. Why is that?

What makes this seemingly good material difficult to use in the manufacture of vertical fishing rods? Deciphering the wonderful manufacturing process of carbon fiber vertical fishing rods will remind you of the mystery and show you the development prospects of this technology. Let's explore the carbon fiber hanging rod together and feel the beauty behind it.

Manufacturing process of graphite vertical fishing rod

Graphite fishing rod is a modern fishing equipment, with simple, consolidated and flexible features. Its manufacturing process needs resume material selection, processing technology and other links.

The primary material of graphite vertical fishing rod is graphite composite material, which has higher strength and lighter weight compared with traditional bamboo and glass fiber reinforced plastic. When selecting graphite composite materials, it is necessary to consider the quality, hardness and elasticity of the material to ensure that the function of the fishing rod can be satisfied with the demand.

Graphite vertical fishing rod processing process is more complex, the demand for multiple links. The first is the cutting of the material, and the selected graphite composite material is cut in accordance with the planning requirements to produce the main part of the fishing rod. Then there is the tortuous treatment of the fishing rod, which is a key link, which requires accurate tortuous treatment according to the planning requirements of the fishing rod, so that the fishing rod has the appropriate tortuosity and elasticity.

The assembly of the fishing rod is to assemble the cut main part with the socket, fishing line ring, etc. to form an intact vertical fishing rod. The final is the surface treatment of the fishing rod, including polishing, painting and other processes to increase the aesthetics and durability of the fishing rod.

Lightweight reasons of graphite vertical fishing rod

With the continuous advancement of science and technology, the traditional vertical fishing rod is gradually replaced by the graphite vertical fishing rod. Graphite vertical fishing rod with its light characteristics become the choice of fishing enthusiasts.

Graphite is a crystalline material composed of pure carbon elements, and its structure is a layered structure. Each graphite layer is composed of a hexagonal grid composed of carbon atoms. This structure makes graphite have strong interlayer bonding and flexibility. The bonding force between the graphite layers is weak, so it can be easily slid and separated between the layers when required.

The graphite material has a low density, which is 1/4 of the traditional steel, so the vertical fishing rod made of graphite is light in weight and convenient to carry and operate. Although the graphite material has a low density, its strength is relatively high. Graphite fiber has high tensile strength, good rigidity, and can withstand large external forces.

Graphite vertical fishing rod is not easy to crack or deformation, more habits when fishing pull. Graphite materials have excellent elasticity. When under force, graphite can absorb energy and deform under the effect of force. When the external force disappears, the graphite material can be restored to its original state.

This elastic characteristic makes the graphite vertical fishing rod with activity and control ability. Graphite materials have good resistance to most chemical etchants and are not susceptible to corrosion in humid environments. This allows the graphite fishing rod can be used for a long time without damage.

By optimizing the structural planning of the graphite vertical fishing rod, the reasonable distribution and utilization of the strength and elasticity of the graphite material, the weight of the fishing rod is reduced under the premise of ensuring a certain strength. Graphite has the characteristics of light weight, high strength, good elasticity, suitable for the manufacture of vertical fishing rod. Traditional vertical fishing rods often use metal or wood, and graphite materials can replace these heavier materials, and then complete lightweight.

The lightweight of graphite vertical fishing rod stems from the common structure and excellent function of graphite materials. The characteristics of graphite layered structure and binding force make it have the characteristics of light weight, high strength, good elasticity and corrosion resistance. At the same time, the reasonable structure planning and the use of graphite materials further reduce the weight of the fishing rod. These advantages make the graphite fishing rod has become an important equipment selection in modern fishing sports.

Graphite vertical fishing rod is difficult to a wide range of reasons

Fishing, as an old recreational activity, has gradually become popular in recent years. The simple graphite hanging rod is regarded as an aspirant fishing tackle, but its widespread speed is relatively slow.

Graphite vertical fishing rods are associated with higher manufacturing, processing and material costs than traditional bamboo or iron rod vertical fishing rods. The price of graphite vertical fishing rod can even reach thousands of RMB, which is a big burden for some general fishing enthusiasts. In comparison, the cost of traditional vertical fishing rod is lower and simpler to be adopted.

The material of the graphite vertical fishing rod is light and lively, but it also makes it more fragile in use. Compared with traditional bamboo or iron rod, graphite rod is easier to break or damage. This has led to some fishing friends to question its durability. In the wild environment, the performance of the rod cannot be guaranteed, especially when dealing with fish with greater strength, which simply results in human error or accidental breakage. Fishing friends are often afraid of the use of graphite hanging rod in the process of accidentally breaking the rod, so as to select the traditional bamboo or iron rod hanging rod.
