APIA Grandage World Ocean 838H

Grandage World Ocean Series

The Grandage World Ocean Series is an innovative offshore casting rod equipped with cutting-edge TORAYCA® third-generation carbon material throughout its length. Designed to revolutionize the concept of traditional casting rods, this series achieves remarkable performance through the integration of world-class carbon strength and APIA’s proprietary BULK405 technology, enhancing destructive strength benchmarks by 150%. Its meticulously balanced design ensures exceptional handling and surpasses expectations for weight-to-performance ratio.

Key Features

The blank is built using TORAYCA® T1100G, a high-tensile strength and mid-high elasticity carbon fiber developed for aerospace and advanced automotive applications. With BULK405, a unique structural reinforcement combining multi-directional prepregs with 405 Super Resin processing, the blank achieves seamless durability, heightened strength, and improved graphite blank cohesion

• T1100G: Offers industry-leading tensile strength and elasticity, boosting rod speed, flexibility, and resistance during casting.
• BULK405: Enhances durability and reduces structural flaws through seamless reinforcement, delivering unmatched performance and longevity.

The blank is coated with APIA’s Shield Tech, a specialized thin, abrasion-resistant tape applied over its length to protect against external damage without adding unnecessary weight.

Incorporating NANO JOINT technology, this two-piece rod eliminates the typical stiffness at joint sections, achieving a bending curve akin to a one-piece rod. The joint system is precision-polished to an accuracy of 0.002–0.005 mm, ensuring stability, strength, and smoothness while maintaining a lightweight design.

The Grandage World Ocean series is supported by a premium warranty, offering unlimited repairs for a deductible fee for up to five years post-production. Proper care instructions are provided to ensure longevity and maintain its pristine condition.

Notable Attributes

• Casting Distance: The rod's high resilience material propels unparalleled casting distance, ensuring effortless long-range capability even with reduced effort, minimizing strain during extended use.
• Sensitivity and Power: A soft tip combined with a robust butt section ensures heightened sensitivity and reliable control, even during high-tension battles.

Application

Perfect for offshore casting applications where strength, precision, and performance are critical, the Grandage World Ocean series stands as the pinnacle of innovation, embodying a new standard for anglers worldwide.
