Slippery Tips Intermediates

SLIPPERY TIPS
 INTERMEDIATES

come in 2 sizes
LIGHT - for
elastics
Ø 0.66mm (2) to 1.13mm (7)
and
HEAVY - for elastics
Ø 1.2mm (8) to 2.1mm (16)

Made
from the purest 
PTFE compounds
and come in a specially
designed "flexible" shape
so to move with and follow
the pole section
when under tension

As pole section diameters
vary with each
 different manufacturer

ST Intermediates are designed to cover these ranges and should
self-locate in most
quality professional level poles

Specifically designed
to fit into
cut back tips and the
2nd section
, or into a
long power tip section
as this is where most of the
bending and the side wall
drag will take place

Intermediates are assembled
by
threading them on to
fitted pole elastic
firstly,
the two smaller diameter
Intermediates go one at a time into the tip section,

inverting the section and
gently tapping down
each Intermediate will
hold them in position

Secondly,
the completed tip section with
the two fitted Intermediates
is slid though the
2nd section
followed in turn by
the final two Intermediates
once again
a slight tap down
will hold them in
position,
or they usually self-locate
.

If a long power tip section
is used
thread the Intermediates
on to the elastic
and fit each one in turn
 starting with the smallest.

You can now set your elastic "so soft", it's like going down a couple of sizes, yet you still have the full power of the fitted elastic, Even the slackest elastic will just slip back inside.

Also the traditional problem of tip "Judder" when elastic sticks and then runs, the cause of many lost fish, is now completely eliminated!!

SLIPPERY TIPS INTERMEDIATES the smoothest elastic system ...ever!
