Was just wondering if anyone knows if the woven graphite foregrips from batson will fit in an american tackle aero reel seat?

The OD of the widest end is about 1.05". I'm not sure what the ID of the Aero is, but I bet you could trim one to fit no problem. I've built up some split grips with the woven fore grips, and they are fantastic, but sleeving foam cores is much more cost effective.

The Aero ID is right at .960 to .964 on the 2 I have here in stock.

That doesn't tell you anything but the inner ID, not a thing about the receiving hood that covers the cork or eva ID that I can see.

What about shaping a different material to fit the seet and then have the woven tube slide up to it
Just a thought
