Abstract

This study is to research the different on the properties of different material used in making fishing rods. The most common material used are bamboo, fibreglass, graphite, and carbon fiber.This material will be examine in terms of their stiffness and elasticity by using bending and. Bending tests are used to assess the behaviour of materials when subjected to simple beam loading. With some materials, it is also known as a transverse beam test. The test is used to determine a material's Young's modulus. From the experiment, we can get the result of elasticity and stiffness of the material.When the forces causing the deformation are removed, the ability of a deformed material body to return to its original shape and size is referred to as elasticity. A body that has this ability is said to be elastic. Meanwhile, stiffness are the extent to which an object resists deformation in response to an applied force. Material testing is important in manufacturing for a variety of reasons, including satisfying regulatory requirements, selecting acceptable materials and treatments for a given application, reviewing product design or enhancement parameters, and confirming a manufacturing process. As for this research, the result from this testing will help the anglers to get the better information on knowing the ability of the fishing and choosing which is the best rod.
