For 20 to 80 lb Rods

AFTCO.s Heavy Duty (HD) roller guides, with ample room for heavy lines and large knots, are ideal for big game trolling and deep water rods rated for 20 to 80-lb. lines, and for stand-up style tuna rods up to a 130-lb. test rating. Each features Aftcote high performance bearings. Standard roller tip-tops are the perfect match for this guide series.

For 16 to 50 lb Rods

AFTCO’s Regular Roller Guides are ideal for light line bluewater trolling, and for deep water live-bait or jigging rods rated for 16 to 50-lb. lines. Each features AFLON high performance bearings. Standard roller tip-tops (see below) also match up with these guides.

The most widely used roller tip-tops in the world.

With universal applications for all types and standard sizes of saltwater trolling and deep water rods, our Standard roller tip-tops, featuring AFLON bearings, are designed to match up with both our Heavy Duty and Regular roller guide sets. Available in both large head (L) and small head (S) versions in many sizes, the “L” models offer extra knot clearance, as with the 112L, 114L and 116L, the most popular models for stand-up style tuna rods.

Aftco Guides and Tip-Top parts are easily replaceable.  AFTCO Roller Guides and Tip-tops are designed and built to provide consistently flawless performance over a lifetime of fishing. The bearings, pins, rollers and screws are always designed to fit perfectly into their proper AFTCO guide or tip-top, regardless of its age.  You may order replacement parts individually, but since the difference in size between like parts is small, they can easily be mistakenly interchanged. To avoid this, we suggest that you order complete assemblies, which include the roller, pin, bearing (with Aftcote lifetime lubricant) and screw, already assembled. We recommend our "hardened" rollers and frames for use with wire lines.
