Quick take
Replacement rod tip guide rings in stainless steel, designed for DIY rod repair and to prevent line twist.
A pack of three stainless steel rod tip guides with a 7 mm ring and a 5 mm tube, in black. They replace a broken or missing tip on a spinning rod, or serve a DIY build, and fit a 6-14 lb line weight. Heat-set adhesive holds the tip in place, so a pair of pliers and a little heat is all the repair needs.
