Snyder Glas Fishing Rods and Blanks Snyder Glas was established in 1976 by Len Butterworth and Dick Snyder, who between them have some 80 years experience in rod and blank manufacture. Snyder Glas was the first in Australia to produce a graphite composite rod suited to Australian conditions. We use a pre-preg cloth and graphite specially imported from Hexcel of U.S.A. Hexcel are a manufacturer of engineered products with applications in the aero space, marine and sporting goods market. Their technology is such that the have supplied materials for use in the Boeing, McDonnell and Airbus aircraft and most recently "The Voyager" - the first aircraft to fly around the world non stop and unrefuelled. We are constantly striving to improve and adapt latest technology for use by the Australian angler. All our blanks are made in Australia and top quality fittings are used on our rods. We also manufacture Tubular Polyester Blanks, Graphite Composite Blanks, Windsurfing Masts, Paddle Shafts, Tubular Antennae Blanks, H.F. Antennas and other industrial products. We have over 100 different blanks in our range and backed by more experience and technology than any other Australian "rod maker". Actually, we are the only Australian company that manufactures all blanks and rods here in Australia. our mandrels are specially designed to produce blanks required by the Australian fisherman. Special equipment built here in Australia by Dick Snyder to produce our blanks, is equal to any in the world. We manufacture a wide range of blanks and custom rods, as well as a standard range of rods, covering heavy game, beach and rock, Blackfish and Whiting. Trade inquiries welcome, snyder@ausfish.com
