Create a clean, precise fit for any insert material
 
These solid white fiberglass stints are designed to make attaching wood, cork, or other insert materials with smaller bores to your rod blank simple and precise. Each stint has a .315" outside diameter, allowing you to reduce the blank’s OD at the butt section and create a perfectly sized mounting surface for your reel‑seat insert.
 
Instead of sanding or thinning the blank, the stint provides a clean, centered interface — ensuring your insert fits straight and secure, regardless of material choice.

How It Works
Cut your blank to length, insert the stint, and mount your reel‑seat insert directly over it. The stint bridges the blank and insert seamlessly, creating a professional, factory‑clean transition.
