Major Craft Giant Killing 5G Jigging Rods

The 5G is a New Manufacturing method adopting the "R360 Structure". The carbon fiber orientation is arranged toward all axis directions:

• Straight – Vertical
• Side – Horizontal
• Fade - Diagonal Right
• Draw - Diagonal Left

The arrangement of Carbon fibers in all directions created am ultra-lightweight blank, that combines power and torque. Unlike the conventional carbon tape reinforcement on the blank’s surface, the blank itself is composed of carbon sheets, laid in the multi-axis directions. It is a blank structure that can respond to any force applied in a 360 degrees angle, hence it helps the rod’s blank section adopt to the situation.

For the development of the 5G rods, Major Craft utilized the T1100G carbon sheets by Toray Industries. The T1100G is a nano-level carbon fiber material, that achieves both high strength and high elasticity modulus. It is a latest technology carbon material, used in the field of aerospace or in aircraft applications (such as the tail of planes and floor beams of Boeing 777s), where extreme performance is required. The difference between the T1100G Torayca® material and other composite materials is that when compared (Load vs Strain), they both behave identically until the maximum load, after which the T1100G resin shows a significant increase in energy absorption, offering 13% higher-strength and 10% higher-elasticity.

The new Jigging rod series Jigging Giant Killing 5G, has utilized to the maximum extend the new, innovative 5G technology, bringing the Jigging style at the forefront of vertical boat fishing. The light weight, the strength of the new Τ1100G material and the tolerance of the R360 weaving technology are by themselves enough to make the quality of a jigging rod stand out from the crowd. Check out the video to visually witness and understand what we have been stating up to now. Add to the equation the fact that the Giant Killing rod series has always been a benchmark in terms of performance in the Jigging technique and you can understand why Major Craft takes a look with enormous pride to the particular 5G rod series. Indeed, it has been redesigned from the tip all the way to the butt. Major Craft developed a comprehensive rod series that can meet the requirements of jigging at any depth against any predator, with the use of Long Fall, Slow and Fast jigs. With the Giant Killing 5G you will experience a brand new feeling of joy when jigging for many hours without fatigue.

The guides are Stainless Steel Fuji with Sic Ceramics and the reel seat is Fuji (DPS & Pulls), ideal for tough battles.
