curado levelwind insert

Post by Zest » Thu Jul 19, 2007 4:48 am

i notice the curado levelwind insert appears black,i assume it's not titanium nitride, so what material is it? SIC or aluminum oxide? yes i know it can handle braid no problem,but i would be happier if you tells me it's SIC

Let me get with Jeremy today when he comes in. I think its aluminum oxide but I'm not 100% sure. I will get back to you on this in about an hour or two.
