Hardy & Greys Announces Tougher, Lighter SINTRIX Line of Fly Rods


Posted on June 17, 2010 - Filed Under Fish, Fishing

Hardy & Greys just announced a new line of fly rods that are 60% stronger and almost a third lighter than their previous carbon fiber products. The difference, says Hardy, is in the new fortified resin, which is filled with silica nanospheres. If the video of an angler fighting a 55-pound shark on a four-piece 7-weight is any evidence, these rods are plenty tough. “Initial SINTRIX developments involve three Hardy fly rod ranges, one saltwater range and two freshwater ranges which will include double handed models. The new Hardy SINTRIX rods are set to be available in January 2011.” Hardy says that the new technology will not mean in an increase in cost. “Prices should be comparable with other premium fly rod ranges,” they say in their press release.
