Product Details

Ring Lock Frame

American Tackle Ring Lock guides are designed for the ultimate in performance and durability. They incorporate a system of pressure fit, enlarged glue reservoir and increased contact area around the ceramic ring to dramatically reduce ring failure. Added bracing and unique frame features greatly reduce ring popping lateral torque through a more stable frame. ATLAS 316SS frame material adds tremendous strength to weight ratio giving this series of guides the edge to outlast and outperform all others.

Nanolite is the ultimate ceramic ring material

Nanolite Ring

The strength of our NanoLite ring allows elimination of material which results in reduced weight without sacrificing strength. Hardness and low coefficient of friction means these rings will easily handle all of today's modern braids and super lines.

Duralite offers durability and functionality at a low entry price

Duralite Ring

A new and improved, proprietary high grade Aluminum Oxide based ring material allows for the reduction of material volume meaning lighter weight and higher compression strength. Economical and highly durable, these rings are popular with rod manufacturers.

NanoPlasma rings more closely resemble jewelry than fishing tackle, but they offer immense benefit that goes beyond the eye

NanoPlasma Ring

Our NanoPlasma ring features high tensile strength, diamond polished, braid proof NanoLite ring with rounded ID's and a new PVD Titanium Nitride or Titanium Oxide coating. The Plasma deposition ring gives you a near zero coefficient of friction extending line life while increasing hardness.

Good Affordable Guide

I bought a 16 and 10 for a stripper set on a 7wt fast action rod. The guides themselves seem fairly well made, with no real issues. You will need to file the foot a little to get a more gradual ramp or else it will be hard to stop thread from slipping off. Just remember don’t use a permanent marker to reapply a black paint (it will react with epoxy). Use a liquid based black paint marker, or a quick shot of spray paint.

No issues with trueness of the guide. Overall a great guide for the price and will be buying more for future builds.

Great guides for price

I have built many rods. Partial to single foot guides. I like the ringlock guides for weight and durability. Love the Titan titanium guides for saltwater here are the guides on a Safe Salt 3 11 wt. Fished a lot in saltwater for tarpon 6-7 trips no impact. More expensive but if building for salt spend the extra $40 for the guides.
