The Gall Of It All

SCRATCH FROM TWISTING
Galling From Friction & Dirt
just like most ferrules
Super-Z: Developed For Fiberglass.
Adopted By Garrison and Payne - For Starters

 ..  Poor Mr. Feierabend. Fine design but neglected care. Without proper use, care and maintenance the mating parts of ferrules get gouged, scraped, scratched, galled, and even bent.
-- Ancient rods, old rods, even fairly new rods can exhibit this kind of abuse and degradation. If left to itself, without attention, this can lead to a stuck rod - or worse.
.. Replacement is often the only remedy if the abuse continues and the condition is neglected. Sad but true.
