I am building my first two piece spinning rod. I am wondering what type of wrapping and how much wrap/epoxy to put on the joint. Any help would be awesome. The blank is a MHX 904-2. Re: 2 Piece Inshre Rod Help

Good rule of thumb, not engraved in stone, is 1.5 to 2 times the ferrule diameter for the wrap length. Forgot to mention, get the thread as close to the edge of the ferrule as you can, all damage starts at the edge first. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/05/2013 10:59PM by Spencer Phipps.

I start away and wrap toward the edge for best results Re: 2 Piece Inshre Rod Help

Actually I start the thread about 1/16 th inch from the edge, get it locked down and them push it to the very edge. After that I finish the wrap working away from the edge. Anyway, normally I wrap 1.5 time diameter or at least as long as the closest guide wrap. I finish it with epoxy, just like any guide wrap. Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
