With our all new proprietary Helix² wrap, we’ve launched rod power and lightness to another level.

CTS blanks were already well known for their incredible power-to-weight ratios thanks to our VeroCore™ Carbon Helix Core technology.

Now, with our larger and longer blanks, such as the S7 Surf series, we’ve designed a blank structure that offers not one but two helical cores – carefully wrapped inside dual uni-directional carbon fibres.

• Helix² is used extensively in our latest generation S7 blanks (from Feb 2018)
• Dual helix wraps sandwich and encase the zero-axis (lengthwise) fibres to reduce fibre buckling in high load situations.
• Blanks are a lot more efficient and light weight
• Wall-thickness-to-diameter ratios are reduced, which increase power to weight significantly
• Blanks are better able to withstand compressive loads that cause buckling failure
• Allows for even lower resin content to push the boundaries of fibre:resin ratios
