OJY&DOIIIY Fishing Rod Tip Repair Kit with Glue,Complete Supplies for Fishing Pole Tip Replacement with Fishing Rod Epoxy,Top Eyelets and Wrapping Thread

My teenager was so excited to purchase his first rod and reel combo but accidentally shut the door on his rod breaking the tip. He was bummed out because the rod was not cheap and he did not want to spend money on another rod. I purchased this kit to repair the rod and save him from spending his money on a new one. The kit comes with a variety of tip sizes and clear instructions. I was able to select a good tip that matched the size of his rod and complete the repair in about 10 minutes. After curing, the tip works as good as new and my son has learned a valuable lesson. The kit has several more tips and materials that can be used for future repairs so this is a good value and I would recommend to any fisherman needing to repair a rod or to have on hand for future repairs.

I have only repaired two poles so far, but it seems to hold up and work like new! The money spent so far has saved two poles, so about broke even right now. Each one I fix after this will be money saved! Great value and variety of sizes! And it almost looks factory, but I wasn't very stable when I installed it and with practice, I'll get better!

I received the product extremely early since I am in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Everything looks good, has the right sizes for the rods I need to repair, has the glue stick to set the new tip, has the thread to do the wrap, but no resin. Hum... I wonder 🤔 what happened there. So now with no resin a few rods to repair what do I do. I use the glue stick just to try and get by. Hope this doesn't happen to you.Edit....Company has refunded me. I now await for a replacement only for the resin. Hope it makes it this time.Edit....PERFECT Product, easy to use, cures in seconds!

Great little kit. Super easy to make a repair and has step by step instruction. Multiple sizes make it a plus. Literally a two minute fix and makes a solid repair. You can’t beat the price.

I was a little shocked when I opened the package and found that the kit had opened in the shipping box; nothing was damaged or missing, and after a quick inspection I realized the manufacturer just needs to provide a box with a smidge more space inside to contain all the kit supplies. (I got it all to fit after my first repair without having to force anything in its place) No big deal though. You use the kit like you would a "standard" kit: heat the broken tip guide, and twist it off. The sand paper swatches included were of high quality and removed all the old tip glue in quick order. Test fit the right size guide (they have a wide range that should fit most standard freshwater, and even some larger saltwater rods) Heat the resin stick provided, get glue evenly around the tip, and fit the replacement tip while resin is hot. (or reheat it if not) Make sure it's lined up with the rest of the guides and wait for resin to cool until hard. (I shaved down some of the squished out resin that accumulated at the base of the tip guide with a new hobby knife & blade) The tied the provided wrapping twine on, wrapped it onto the rod and onto the base of the tip guide. I then set a timer on my phone for the recommended two minutes for UV cure time, (tip: tie a small hook on the end of the wrapping twine and take up most of the excess that isn't wrapped, then set the hook into the foam twine spool, this will help you keep tension for the next step) I then applied the UV cured resin, set a timer on my phone and provided UV curing light, hit star on the timer and spun the rod back and forth in an overlapping back and forth arc to allow the UV resin to spread evenly while curing. By the time the timer was up, the UV resin was rock hard. (a tiny bit of surface tack made me continue with the UV light and rotating the rod for an additional 20-30 seconds, but I believe that to be a matter of UV cured resins, not inferior UV resin, as it it was far from problematic and the tack dissipated after a short time. With the same hobby knife, I cut the twine from the cured wrapping and took a small hobby file to the tiny bump that was left due to the cutting of the tag end of the wrapping twine. And then I did the tug and twist test. I think I could've twisted the pole to the point of it breaking the new tip guide, the hold was that strong. I did not place the kit back in my work room; it went right into the tackle bag, because this kit could easily be used on a boat or sitting on a bank and could mean the difference between a miserable day of fishing, or a fantastic one. I will be ordering this product again... if somehow I end up breaking ten rod tip guides (which is not outside the realm of possibility with me, even though I've had a rod in my hand for over 37 years near constantly, lol)

Nice little kit, but don't trust the resin bottle. It's too finely tipped and doesn't let the resin come out easily. When I was trying to squeeze it out, the top popped off and the resin went everywhere!

First time ever repairing a rod. Came with everything you need. Simple instructions. Perfect fit on the tip to the rod. Not the prettiest looking on my part but got the job done. I definitely recommend this product.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Worked great. Fixed my rod tip. The instructions are very sparse so there are items in the kit that aren’t mentioned.I used a larger UV light I had at home to cure extra and left in the sun. The light it comes with worked but I wanted extra cured!
