Rod pod twists

[Dezzy27]

Any thoughts on stopping or limiting the twist on the rod holders on a rod pod.  No matter how tight I do them they still seem to twist out of alignment

Just a thought, try using different butt Gripz

Use a rubber o ring on the thread of the rod holder 👍

Thank you,

I've used rubber O rings and leather washers on mine, neither have stopped it happening, then it's an old pod - think the threads are turning inside the buzz bar tbh

Going to try a second leather washer on each and if that doesn't fix it either put up with it as usual or buy a new pod.  How could I chuck away a Quatro pod though an absolute classic bit of kit! 😪

Kev maybe try Blue Loctite with quick release connectors like from Prologic  …I had a set of heavy stainless bank sticks and buzz bars and the only way to tighten them up was using leather washers.

Try some PTFE tape around the thread should work.

Loctite 55 is what you need

I found that the threads turned on older Fox buzz bars after a few years. My mate couldn't work out why his buzzers would not stay straight. 

If you can pick up a set of buzzer bars that will fit the pod?
