Formed from the finest marine alloy using AFTCO's unique "swaging" process, the ONE-PIECE Unibutt aluminum butt and reel seat is "unitized" for maximum strength and minimum weight. The aligning pin-plug, gimbal and fixed hood are locked in permanent alignment so that the gimbal, reel and rod guides always line up perfectly.

The ferrules are precision-machined to ensure complete interchangeability of rod tip sections and an "O" Ring on the ferrule prevents corrosion between ferrule and reel seat. A Teflon ring inside the collet nut assures a snug fit, prevents galling and allows easy removal of the nut. Stronger, lighter and simpler, AFTCO Unibuts are available in Silver, Black, and Black and Gold anodized finishes.
