Maverix Rods Specifications
Action
Maverix Rods are designed and constructed to a strict high performance philosophy. An all graphite blank specifically designed and built to achieve the Maverix Hybrid action. At the same time it is both robust and superbly lightweight. Utilising the full length of the rod immediately load is applied, remarkable lifting power is achieved whilst also increasing sensitivity.
Maverix Rods feature a responsive tip that does not fold away and an enhanced power butt and fore butt section that will hold up under all conditions. The combined effect of the action is to retrieve astounding quantities of line with the minimum of effort from the angler. So much so that it may require fitting of faster retrieve reels in some cases or major reductions in the lift angle applied. Typically full rod action and optimum line recovery can be achieved with a Maverix Rod with a stroke of just 30 degrees! At the same time the inclusive rod action is extremely forgiving of angler error during drop down.

Ergonomics
The innovative Maverix Rods Torque Groove grip achieves a dramatic 50%+ reduction in your effort to control rod twist and simultaneously delivers increased sensitivity. This is achieved by engineering the perfect fit of the grip to your hand delivering increased feel, total comfort and elimination of hand, arm and shoulder fatigue. Further 'ease of use' benefits result from overall ultra light weight and designed weight distribution achieving perfect balance. Increased winding power is also derived by using a short butt to reel seat distance placing the reel closer to your body ensuring maximum comfort and elimination of stretching or unnatural hand to body positioning. Some times this just has to be experienced to be believed.

Construction
Your Maverix Rod is built using hand crafted quality methods that are only achievable with a serious investment in construction time and effort. For instance to build up a Maverix reel seat and grip section takes us up to 3 times longer typical factory production rod builders. We guarantee 95% solid resin fill of reel seats and gimbals compared to a typical <70% with traditional methods. Result, unparalleled mounting security that eliminated possibility of adhesion failure. Grips are fitted using a proprietary method combining tight fit and high penetration expanding glue system and are guaranteed to never ever come loose. We promise the only way a grip can come off is with a knife!

Binding
Every Maverix Rod is built using the same perfection based processes. All guides are fully under bound with a High Tensile Metallic thread which is in turn fully resined. Then the guide is fitted and a single initial over bind completed before further saturation resin coat applied. The second and final binding is then placed over the top of the first binding and further coats of resin applied for increased strength and protection. We call this the Maverix Saturation Resin Binding system. Yes it takes a lot longer to achieve but we believe it is absolutely essential in order to guarantee optimum life of guide placements. But it doesn't stop there. We use two different resins at different stages to ensure appropriate properties are applied as required. Both resins are advanced formulas with exceptionally high residual flexibility ratings. If you ever have to have a guide replaced the repairer will appreciate just how well these guides are fitted. Of course this means we can guarantee you will never be let down with a binding failure under any circumstances.
