Long rod such as a fishing rod

摘要

PURPOSE:To absorb impact and protect a long article main body from getting broken, damaged or the like by providing a reinforced layer constituted of thermoplastic noncrystalline polymer fibers on a long article formed with reinforced fibers impregnated with synthetic resin. CONSTITUTION:A woven-cloth 11 constituted of thermoplastic noncrystalline polymer fiber, for example PEI (polyetherimide) or the like, for forming a small reinforced layer 6 and a woven-cloth 12 constituted of thermoplastic noncrystalline polymer fibers for forming an inner layer reinforcing layer 9 and a prepreg sheet 13 for forming a joint tapered section 2 or prepared on a prepreg 10 cut into a trapezoid shape for cutting a fishing rod main body 1. Said sheet is wound around a mandrel 14. Then, a woven cloth 15 constituted of thermoplastic noncrystalline polymer fibers for forming an outer layer reinforced layer 3 is cross-wound in high density at the given value. Although said operation is different for various different conditions such as the diameter of fibers, diameter of material and others, the interval of woven-cloth to be wound is desirably 4mm or smaller. A tubular body 16 is pulled out of the mandrel 14 and surface grinding, end section processing and coating are carried out to manufacture the fishing rod A.
