Teflons, connectors, outlets
The Teflon inserts, connectors and guides help keep your rake stick running smoothly and safely in all situations. They are small but key elements in fine line fishing, making it easier to keep the rubber and topset running smoothly. Choose from premium brands in the TackleBait webshop if you want uncompromised performance.
Teflon inserts, connectors and outlets are among the hidden, but extremely important elements of pole and line fishing. These tiny parts play a key role in the life of the rubber running in the topset, its friction-free movement and the reliable operation of the whole rig. A good rod and a perfectly adjusted rubber will do you no good - if the outlet is not of the right quality, it can compromise the efficiency of the whole system.
Teflon outlets protect the points where the rubber exits the inside of the stick. Their function is to reduce friction, prevent wear and unnecessary stretching of the rubber. Inserts of different diameters fit precisely into the end of the topset so they do not move during use. In addition, the shape of the outlet also counts: smoothly curved, precision-machined outlets guarantee smooth movement even when jigging larger fish.
The connectors allow for reliable attachment between the topset and the rubber. They are usually of the swivel head or locking pin design, so they can be changed quickly, yet provide a stable hold. Thanks to their precise fit and strong use of materials, the couplings do not cut the rubber or become snagged during tightening.
Preston outlets and inserts are particularly popular with riders - their precision-engineered components offer long life and reliable performance. In addition, Garbolino and Sensas offer a range of solutions that are ideal for both beginners and advanced anglers, whether it's internal or external rubber outlets or topsets in various sizes.
These components are not spectacular, yet they are the heart and soul of the tackle. A well-adjusted system not only makes fishing more comfortable, but also more efficient - less snags, smoother rigging, less broken rubber. TackleBait has all the types, sizes and designs that today's modern jigging rod techniques demand.
