Thor Heliforce bars are used for forming lintels over window openings or for over-pinning areas of ground movement such as subsidence or heave. The mortar joint reinforcing bars extend 500mm either side of the opening to ensure sufficient dead weight fixity to limit deflection of the lintel under load conditions. Heliforce bars are available solely from Wykamol Structural /Thor Remedial

My review:

For review I looked at the 2.4M/7.87ft+3000 set

This arrived in a basic slip case, tip protector, with a boxed reel (and a soft storage case for it).
Starting with the rod first which is available to buy on it’s own. The collapsed size is 41cm in length extending up in 7 sections to the full 2.4M. It’s a bit unusual to see an extending handles you unscrew this and pull it back. No doubt the maker is trying to make the rod as small as possible for carrying – handle extends just under 12cm with a handle length of 33.5cm up to the screw thread area. The cap at the back can be removed and there is a bit of space for possibly a small hook rig in there not a huge area as the rod sections move above it.

Immediately I noted the first “problem” and that is the padding on the handle. Nothing wrong with it a dense foam material; the foam area is only 9cm long it really needs to go the entire length of the handle for one obvious reason…fishing is a two handed activity. You’ll have to grip the glossy area above this when using both hands. It’s just about large enough for one mid sized hand to grip it.

Personally I don’t care that much for the colourful “bling” look to the rod it’s a bit over the top even extending to the metal guides which have a rainbow colour effect. However it is different (if you’re after that), and the rod is well made with aluminium on many parts of the handle including the reel seat/adjusters and top section of the handle.
Moving to the reel now this is branded as “Yumoshi” with a 3000 size it’s a good fit for the rod. Front drag control with a ratio of 5:5:1 (one handle turn = 5 revolutions on the spool) it feels very solid in the hand with a metal foot/support arm. A smooth action with 12+1 ball bearings and aluminium on the spool area. Usual anti reverse switch at the bottom and a varnished wood handle. This can be exchanged left/right but the best feature is the push button which lets you collapse the arm in for storing. Most rods require you to partly unscrew them to do this.

It’s a fine reel and I like the action and feel of it. Capacity is also quite good at 12/240 15/190 20/130 LBS/YDS (0.20mm/270m 0.25mm/200m 0.30mm/140m) above average for a reel this size you should have no problems with casting distances.

A slightly mixed bag with this both the rod and reel feel much better in person than photos can illustrate. However I need to spend more time using this to see how it holds up to more intensive fishing (and stress), so I will update the review to reflect that. If the maker improved the handle design to include a larger grip area that would be very welcomed. I might also tone down the look a bit, no doubt some might like the rather loud appearance.

It does collapse into a nice small size and will work well where you want to keep the space down to a minimum maybe a holiday/travel rod or as a spare/second rod. Do get a case for it even though you can store it in the slip bag it’s far easier to leave the reel attached. If the maker included one even with a slight price hike it would be worth it. Not a stand out rod on it’s own, the excellent reel lifts the overall appeal quite a bit.
