The Tiagra Hyper is the new high-end stand-up trolling rod, available in three different IGFA classes: 30LB, 50LB and 80LB. Being produced with only the best materials available, this rod is lighweight yet incredible strong and powerful. The blank has been designed with NANO technology: this makes is stronger then a blank without this technology. All these features make the new Tiagra Hyper excellent to use for stand-up fighting tuna or other big pegalic monsters of the deep blue.
Shimano NANO carbon is a technology which is used to build rod blanks which are on average 35% stronger and 15% lighter than a conventional rod blank. The heart of a NANO rod blank is made of a NANO carbon sheet. This sheet has a special weave which allows to use a low amount of resin which is spread into very small (nano) particles throughout the sheet. This creates the lightness, strength and responsiveness in the blank.
Shimano High Pressure Carbon is a process which creates stronger, more responsive blanks. Pressure is applied to the blank surface during curing (heating) which evenly distributes the resin through the carbon fibre matrix. The result is a much stronger, more consistent performance and improved responsive.
