TRIANGULAR RING

“Need a Tripod?”

Absolutely No need, KIGAN alone can bring you unimaginable stuff.

Parts, where lines and guides are rubbing against each other, are reduced by an average of 30%.compared to conventional circular guides. (Minimum 12.44% ~ maximum 48.29%: the result of computer simulation when all external conditions such as wind volume and wind direction are the same)

Decrease of area friction represents a proportional decrease of heat arising from the friction, and the accuracy upon casting strengthened up as well as the longer life of line is ensured.

Also, Casting to the same spot requires less energy, and casting with the same energy extends distance guaranteed when release.

These features enable users to feel less tired and stressed, even relatively more prolonged periods of residence.

The above explained is the triangle effect of KIGAN.

Limit Of the Circle Ring

A fishing line guide ring is generally formed in such a way that an inner diameter portion is a perfect circle shape, so when casting, a fishing line is released and passes through a guide ring as it rotates along an inner surface of a guide hole of a guide ring.

As a fishing line passes while coming into contact with a front surface of an inner diameter portion, the friction amount when a fishing line passes through a guide hole is subject to the surface of an inner diameter portion, and the abrasion amount of a fishing line increase due to the resistance which occurs due to the friction, so the service time of a fishing line might decrease.

Advantageous Effects of Triangular Ring

The triangular ring is characterized in that the fishing rod guide hole(2) of a guide ring(1) is formed in such a way that an inner diameter portion is formed in a shape (photo 1) with an outward concave portion(2a) is formed at three divided portions, respectively, in the same shape along an inner surface of it, so a contact length that a fishing line contacts decreases about 30% as compared to the conventional circular guide hole(2). As such, when casting or winding a fishing line, the friction resistance of a fishing line decreases, so it is possible to cast farther and to wide faster. The fishing line is less damaged, and a lot of advantages can be obtained in the triangular ring. Besides, the outer diameter portion of the guide ring(1) is formed in a perfect circle shape, so a work for fixing at the guide frame becomes easy and reliable, and the product can be manufactured by means of a press molding method as compared to the metallic rod in the conventional art, so the mass production is made possible, and the durability of the product is very high, so the value of the product can be enhanced.
