Century Eliminator X80 Beach Rod 13'6'' 4-7oz

Century Eliminator X80 Beach Rod 13'6'' 4-7oz

The Eliminator X80 has thousands of hours of research, development and testing devoted to its final conclusion as the most advanced overlap joint high performance UK built shore rod. Iteration after iteration being tested by our dedicated consultants and on our own internal test rigs. The novel technology and advanced manufacturing have generated a well-balanced rod, with a very responsive tip action, progressively stiffening throughout the curve to store and smoothly release energy from the butt. New mandrel tooling and composite pattern designs that allow a semi tapered butt section with progressive phased tapers, adjustable positioning reel seat are all part of the technology package.
This rod has been designed to sit between the T800 and T900, it is ideal for clean to mixed ground anglers. Think open beaches like Chesil and Dungeness. We recognise that 13' 6" is a sweet spot for many anglers in terms of length for casting. It is exceptionally light for a rod casting up to 7oz plus bait, with a lovely slim diameter at 19.70mm that will make it very comfortable for most hands. The X80, like its newly launched counterparts are the first rods in the Eliminator ranges to feature an Overlap Joint. The X80 will likely suit most anglers with 5 1/2oz or 6oz plus bait as they load up beautifully. Don't be surprised if you add some yards to your cast, a lot of innovation has gone into the technical development phase.
The materials used in the Eliminator X series follow on from our experience in current Eliminator rods by using Spread Tow Fabric (STF) combined once again with HPR resin technology and Autoclave Technology to offer significant AT-T anti-twist properties. The STF surfaces in the butt and lower tip and compliments the Anti-Twist Technology incorporated throughout the rod. STF comes straight out of Formula One and all cars use this material extensively in the chassis for performance. Fitted with the robust yet super light Titanium K guides as standard keeps excess weight to a minimum. This Eliminator X series of rods is another example of Century driving the rod industry and rod design forward to maintain our place as the leading manufacturer of sea rods.
