ABSTRACT:
There is described a method for forming high modulus, high strength, low density solid tapered composite rods suitable for use as fishing rods and the like. The method comprises the steps of disposing a plurality of resin-impregnated high modulus, high strength, low density fibers such as boron, carbon, polymeric aromatic nylon or the like uniformly about and in parallel relation to a wire mandrel, the fibers being less in number at one end than at the other end to form a green composite tapered rod, compacting the rod to densify and shape it to a preselected configuration, completely encasing the rod within an embracing molding surface, placing the encased green rod within a rigid tube in spaced relation to the walls thereof, filling the space between the enclosed rod and the tube with particulate material to apply uniform peripheral contact pressure along the length of the rod sufficient to laterally restrain the rod during resin cure and thereby ensure alignment of the fibers and heating the rod to cure the resin.
