Using the measurements of the posts we design the post protector to be round, square or rectangular to fit properly. If you can't see any 'weave pattern' like small squares in the professional repair then it's likely they've used a unidirectional carbon fibre reinforcement, rather than a woven reinforcement. Knowing that quality materials were needed and that the padding needed to fit the post so it lasts much longer has proved to work perfectly, not just in schools but in many other sectors also. It would be possible for you to use this same reinforcement in your home repairs, in fact we do sell unidirectional reinforcement, although there would be some extra considerations if you use this format of reinforcement. The kit includes all of the necessary materials and equipment to repair a carbon fibre fishing pole and requires only competent practical skills and a couple of hours of your time to repair your broken or fractured fishing pole or rod so that it is as strong as it was before the damage occurred.

Bring the two halves of the pole or rod together if necessary and secure them for the duration of the repair.

A circumference measurement around the column is important for determining column diameter and selection of the correct model size (use a tape measure or string). Next, slide the good tube (wrapped with wet carbon) inside the broken tube, aiming to leave the repair bandage positioned correctly underneath the damaged area of the pole.
