I bought 3 gamma beta’s fly blank from NorthForkComposites in all 4 piece 9ft blanks

It’s not listed on NFCs webpage regarding their tip size diameter.

Anybody here has built or know the tip size can help me so I can buy the correct tiptop guide.

The following blanks are as follow below



F 1290-4 gamma beta fly blank

F 1090-4 gamma beta fly blank

F 890-4 gamma beta fly blank


Thank you in advance I really appreciate it.

F 1290-4 gamma beta fly blank - tip top 5.0, butt 0.511

F 1090-4 gamma beta fly blank - tip top 4.5, butt 0.454

F 890-4 gamma beta fly blank - tip top 4.5, butt 0.440

This information is in their catalog.

According to their catalog, the 890 and 1090 are 4.5 and the 1290 is 5.0

Ordering tip sizes based on published tip sizes in ones catalog can be hit or miss . Best to carry a wide variety of tip sizes or simply wait to measure each blanks tip top diameter when it comes in to be sure. Ordering the exact listed tube size AND one tube size larger will usually eliminate disappointment .

Thank you sir! I really appreciate it

Kim,
If you don't already have one - make a point to pick up one of the many different tools that are readily available to measure tip sizes of rod blanks and also inside diameter of tip tops:

I think if you get them in 4.5 and 5 you should be covered although the 12wt may have a 5.5. I have found that there could be some difference in the actual tip size than what is published. I usually get the tip tops after I have actually measured the blank tip. You can build most of the rod without the tip top, starting with the grip section, so by the time it comes in you should be ready for it. Don't stress it, it will get done in time.
