Just noticed on some of the NFC rod blanks, the tip and butt diameters are listed as null. What does this mean for ordering tip tops and butt components?

I think it means you have to look in the catalog for the specs/diameters. I'm not sure why it's shown this way. I expect someone from NFC will chime in.

The "null" is the value stored in the database...ie nothing.
If it were a space it would look blank. So nothing was ever entered.
....its a database thing and has a purpose...just not really in this case.

Greg,

You can find all of the specs here:

[northforkcomposites.com]

Null just means that a value has not been entered for the blank in the database. Which blank? I’ll take a look and get it updated - it was probably missed in an update.

Best Regards,
Aleks

I have noticed on the NFC Website that Gamma Alpha, Gamma Beta, and Psi Fly Rods don't list the Butt and Tip Diameters.(However they aren't listed as NULL)
