What is Graphene Reinforced
Century have developed a bespoke combination of the resin matrix and Graphene. The resin matrix carries the loadings generated on the rod by casting and playing and when fortified by graphene creates resilience and toughness. Graphene is a form of carbon in a monolayer of honeycomb lattice and its discovery was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics.
When properly incorporated in the resin system it has the capacity to significantly Increase resilience far more effectively than one-dimensional (e.g. nanotube) and zero-dimensional (e.g. nanoparticle) fortifiers so we can make blanks lighter, more responsive, improved anti twist but maintain the usual high strength and toughness you expect of a Century carp rod.
What is Generation 2 Anti-Twist Technology (Gen 2 AT-T)?
The new technology used in the construction of the blank is highly innovative. Using our propriety Grephene material to help create Generation 2 Anti-Twist Technology in the tip section, radically improves directional stability and thus improving accuracy, line fraps and distance. All rods have a “moment of inertia” and this is pronounced in lightweight carp rods that tend to twist when cast. The Generation 2 AT-T resists this angular acceleration by the insertion of new fibres at varying angles within the wall of the rod.
Century’s proprietary method of achieving this without losing tip sensitivity and keeping the weight low in the tip, stabilises the blank to maintain alignment of the guide during compression of the rod when casting and playing fish.
Century Stealth Graphene 12' 3.25lb (playing/all round rod and similar power to C2 12’ 3.50lb as a reference) – size 50 guides by default
Century Stealth Graphene 12’ 3.50lb (Not as nice as above rods on playing side as more of a general all-rounder - casting power similar to ADV 3.50lb)– size 50 guides by default
Century Stealth Graphene 12' 3.75lb (a long distance casting rod at 12' similar power levels to the C2-D 13’ but this one is 12’) – easier to compress in the butt section than FMA/SP during cast but this one has a more powerful tip to utilise and allow angler to get into the butt. – size 50 guides by default
Century Stealth Graphene 13' 3.50lb (general all round ability similar power to a C2 or ADV 13'). This 13' will not be an outright long range rod - the C2-D 13' will still be our long range 13' rod. European use rod mainly for anglers that prefer longer length rods due to rocky lake shores where need to gain extra tip height to keep line high – size 50 guides by default
