Just as advertised and good service. Will add ZHUSROD to our preferred suppliers list of Winfield Bamboo Fly Rods. Remember, if the Rod's not warrantied for life, it's not a Winfield.

Hi Winfield, thank you for your kind words! We're delighted to be part of your preferred suppliers list and appreciate your support. Looking forward to serving you again!
I purchased ferrules to replace original components for a vintage bamboo rod restoration. Ordering an overseas product left me (unnecessarily) apprehensive about quality, size, delivery, and so forth. The first thing I did was check the measurements with a digital caliper — right on the money. Craftsmanship is excellent. The male ferrules are already lapped to size, with a smooth, but not overly tight match. Delivery took about two weeks from China to USA Midwest. I'm pleased with this product.
Hi Mark, thank you for sharing your experience! We're delighted to hear you're pleased with the ferrules and that they met your expectations. Happy rod restoring!

Nickel Silver Ferrule Size Guide
Bamboo rod ferrules are sized to the outside diameter (OD) of your blank at the ferrule station. To choose the right fly rod ferrule: measure the OD of the blank where the ferrule will seat, then select the ferrule whose female bore matches that diameter. Our nickel silver ferrules cover the common range used on roughly 2–9 wt bamboo fly rods. If you're between sizes, choose the closest and fit with a light lap for a slip-free seat.
How to fit a bamboo rod ferrule
Clean and lightly scuff the cane station, dry-fit the ferrule for a snug slip fit, then bond with a quality rod-builder's epoxy. Align the female and male sections, wipe excess, and cure fully before wrapping. A correctly fitted ferrule seats with a clean "pop" and no wobble.
Ferrule FAQ
What is a ferrule on a fly rod? A ferrule is the metal joint that connects two sections of a multi-piece rod, transferring the bend smoothly across the joint while letting the rod break down for transport.
What size ferrule do I need? Match the ferrule to the outside diameter of your blank at the ferrule station — measure with calipers and pick the nearest size.
Can I use these to repair or replace a broken ferrule? Yes. These nickel silver ferrules are ideal for repairing or replacing a damaged ferrule on a bamboo or cane fly rod.
