ProKöte High-Build Rod Building Thread Finish

Product Details

All-New High-Build Formula

PROKÖTE™ is proud to announce the arrival of its new High Build Formula. PROKÖTE™ High Build features the unparalled UV protection, superior clarity and easy leveling that made PROKÖTE™ the leader in rod finishes but in a 25% thicker formula and offers 25% faster drying time.

For Rod Builders, by Rod Builders

Experienced rod builders know what they want in a rod finish: extended working time, easy leveling, good bubble release, thread saturation, ultimate clarity and protection from UV yellowing. PROKOTE™ answers these needs while providing the industry's first medium build epoxy.

Each kit includes mixing & application instructions, and smaller kits (2-8oz) also include a set of free 3cc color-coded syringes & color coded yorker caps.

Note: the volume listed is the total volume of both hardener and resin. For example: when ordering PK-2, that features (2) 1oz. bottles to make approximately 2oz. of prepared finish.

The Difference is Clear.

PROKOTE™ rod finish has been tested to be the #1 epoxy. PROKOTE™ has the finest UV inhibitors available in a commercial rod finish. The clarity is unsurpassed by any other finish - period. It remains flexible without staying soft or becoming too hard and cracking. The leveling properties in this finish are 2nd to none while micro bubbles release with ease. In 1,500 hours of weatherometer (WOM) Xenon Arc testing by an independent laboratory, PROKOTE™ Rod Finish proved to be the #1 brand of thread finish epoxy for rod builders. Tests for quality and overall coating performance were performed.

Controlled laboratory testing proved dramatic superiority over the other brands. Tests on PROKOTE™ note an 87% clarity retention compared to the leading manufacturer, while UV Yellowing was the lowest of all brands tested. Laboratory Tests note that PROKOTE™ Rod Building Finish is 207% better at non-yellowing and 187% better at a 60 degree gloss reflectiveness than the leading brand of rod building finish.

Please note: Epoxy finish typically has a 1 year shelf life depending on conditions.

High Build Review

The ProKöte High-Build is an outstanding product that I've used multiple times, and have re-purchased several times again and again. However, there is one drawback worth noting: I strongly advise against ordering large quantities. The reason is that the resin tends to go bad after about two years.

To extend its shelf life, you can vacuum seal the product after opening. Still, considering the investment you've likely made in creating your custom rod, I recommend buying a fresh bottle for each new build. It ensures optimal quality and avoids potential issues with expired resin.

High Build 👍

I think it is the easiest epoxy to work with. The high build allows you to manage the build up with heat and a brush. Highly recommend the product.

very good thread finish.

I have used this brand for years in both the medium and heavy build. I works fine for me.

To Thick

Opened my new bottle and the resin was so thick I could not get it to be sucked into the syringe. Couldn't even finish 6 guides before it was so thick and hard that I could not use any more of the finish to complete my rod.
