CRB Rod Guides:

NanoMicro Guides
For Spinning and casting, these guides are not only less than half the weight of conventional micros of comparable size, they have no ring to lose. Due to the high carbon content in the alloy they perform exceptionally well with either braid or mono.
Less Weight
A set of micro guides only weighs 17% of what a set of standard sizes weigh. Any weight savings on the upper portion of a rod adds significantly to its sensitivity.
Less Wind Knots
The low profile of NanoMicro guides means that you get far fewer “wind knots” with braid because there is not as much protrusion to catch a loop.
Colored Guides
Available in Purple Passion, Mean Green and Fireball Red – and guaranteed to be a hit on your next custom project! These guides are constructed with Stainless Steel frames and Titanium Nitride coated gold Zirconia ring.
