Century ADV-1 (Advanced One) Carp Rods

The ADV-1 is made in the two prime test curves, 3.25lb and 3.5lb, and will cover UK venues and also guest on most Continental waters.

The rods are finished with a low flash PTFE/Silicone sealant for high UV resistance. and fitted with Century SiC guides with a 50mm configuration tied in jet black thread and sealed with multiple coats of prime 2 pack epoxy.

The ADV-1 is well balanced and feels light to hand directly as a result of the carbon fibres used internally and the lightweight factory manufactured carbon 1k-1k reel seat with matching carbon spacers. The lower grip is made from Japanese shrink rubber and trimmed with stainless steel, laser engraved band and butt cap.

The subtle use of 1k-1k carbon fibre on the butt section and lower tip contributes towards increased hoop strength in the blank. Century have selected the best raw materials to balance the requirements for performance, low weight and diameter. The architecture of the blank is a combination of machine cut cross ply 35gsm carbon, intermediate and high modulus carbon with a woven 1k-1k outer sheath.

Century has optimised the carbon patterns to generate a classic mid to tip action that will assist in super smooth casts and effortless playability. The rod is subject to their unique Autoclave Technology for action retention and also incorporates ATT (Anti Twist Technology) to aid directional accuracy and distance.

The ADV-1 is constructed in UK at Century's factory in Washington using the most advanced rod building machinery and in conformance with certified quality and environmental systems.

Available as 3.25lb or 3.5lb test curves. Both models 12ft.
