St. Croix Rods Technology and Materials Chart | ||
St. Croix Technology | Meaning | Description |
IPC | Integrated Poly Curve Tooling Technology | Designed to eliminate all transitional points in the rod blank, IPC-engineered rods feature smoother actions, increased strength, and greater sensitivity |
ART | Advanced Reinforcing Technology | An exotic carbon fiber 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. |
FRS | Fortified Resin System | Prevents microbuckling by keeping the carbon fibers in proper alignment. Blanks manufactured using this advanced manufacturing protocol test out consistently to be 33% stronger. |
TET | Taper Enhancement Technology | IPC-mandrels combined with unique patterns create blanks with better actions and improved sensitivity. |
iACT/ACT Glass | Internally Active Glass | An exotic carbon fiber 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. |
AGS | Air Guide System | St. Croix uses Daiwa's Air Guide System, made from a carbon frame that does not absorb vibration, but will transmit it directly to the angler's hands. |
SCIV+ | Super High-Modulus Next Generation Carbon Fiber | Technique-specific iACT SCIV+ and Linear S-Glass. FRS, ART, IPC and TET included. Hybrid carbon fiber enhanced with new IACT Glass Technology |
SCVI Exotic | Super High-Modulus Graphite Fiber | Super high-modulus, high-strain graphite fiber. Efficient material adds power and minimal weight. Used only to complement other graphite materials, as it is too high in modulus to be used as a primary material. Includes FRS Technology. |
SCV Extraordinary | High-Modulus Graphite Fiber | High-modulus, high-strain graphite fiber with carbon-matte scrim. Produces the lightest, most sensitive and strongest rods. The finest blank material, exclusive to St. Croix. Includes FRS Technology. |
SCIV | High-Modulus Graphite Fiber | High-modulus, high-strain graphite fiber produces extremely light and sensitive rods, similar to the SCV, without the carbon matte-scrim. Includes FRS Technology. |
SCIII | High-Modulus Graphite Fiber | High-modulus, high-strain graphite fiber produces sensitive and lightweight rods with great durability. |
SCII | Mid-Modulus Graphite Fiber | Mid-modulus graphite fiber with a higher strain rate than fibers commonly used by others. Most popular material that is lightweight, durable and sensitive, like you would expect from a St. Croix rod. |
SCI | Mid-Modulus Graphite Fiber | Mid-modulus graphite fiber with a higher strain rate than fibers commonly used by others. Most popular material that is lightweight, durable and sensitive, like you would expect from a St. Croix rod. |
