Century Eliminator X100

The Eliminator X100 has thousands of hours of research, development and testing devoted to its final conclusion as the most advanced overlap joint high performance UK built shore rod. Iteration after iteration being tested by our dedicated consultants and on our own internal test rigs. The novel technology and advanced manufacturing have generated a well-balanced rod, with a very responsive tip action, progressively stiffening throughout the curve to store and smoothly release energy from the butt. New mandrel tooling and composite pattern designs that allow a semi tapered butt section with progressive phased tapers, adjustable positioning reel seat are all part of the technology package.

This is a colossus of a rod, a genuine beast. It isn’t for everyone and its designed for the harshest conditions. Think about big seas, storms, rough ground, kelp forests, big tope, large common skate, monster conger and huge fish from the shore in warmer climates like stingers and sharks. It will send your big baits high and long. If you are a good to excellent caster who can send a lead a long way, it is worth bearing in mind that the X100 has already set a British casting record in the hands of Jason Carter, 295.58 meters (323 yards) on 125g and 294 meters (321 yards) on 150g. Improvements, cutting-edge materials, and our technological know-how are again giving us an advantage in this domain. 14′ 6″ is a very manageable length for many anglers, whilst still achieving optimum ranges.

The materials used in the Eliminator X series follow on from our experience in current Eliminator rods by using Spread Tow Fabric (STF) combined once again with HPR resin technology and Autoclave Technology to offer significant AT-T anti-twist properties. The STF surfaces in the butt and lower tip and compliments the Anti-Twist Technology incorporated throughout the rod. STF comes straight out of Formula One and all cars use this material extensively in the chassis for performance. Fitted with the robust yet super light Titanium K guides as standard keeps excess weight to a minimum. This Eliminator X series of rods is another example of Century driving the rod industry and rod design forward to maintain our place as the leading manufacturer of sea rods.
