Tailwalk Rod Model Numbers Explained

FULLRANGE C69M/CC identifies a casting rod with a 6'9" length, Medium power, and center-cut two-piece construction. Other codes identify tips, action, and travel construction. Reading a model name in blocks makes that information easier to use.

This guide explains the main naming patterns through specific products. The model code provides the configuration; the published specifications add the lure rating, line rating, action, and packed dimensions needed to choose a rod.

Quick reference

Code block	What it usually identifies	Example
Series name or label	Product family or construction tier; confirm it on that series page	AJIST SD; HI-TIDE TZ
S / C	Spinning / casting	S86ML; C69M/CC
Number block	Length, sometimes followed by a class or section count	66; 5103; 584
UL, L, ML, M, MH	Power class within the named series	S86ML
-F / -R	Fast / Regular action where the series encodes action	S83M-F
/SL, /SSL, /TT, /TISL	Tip construction	S47/SSL
/CC, -P4, -P5, -T	Joint or travel construction	C69M/CC; S50L-T

Read the series first. The same digit or suffix can serve a different role in another family, and lure, line, action, piece count, and closed length may remain separate specification-table fields.

TZ, SD, SSD, MB, and BM: understand the series names

These labels describe series positioning or manufacturing choices. They are not one universal three-step grading system.

Label	How to use it	Product example
TZ	A series label used on premium configurations; check the product page for the actual guide and blank specification	HI-TIDE TZ
SD	A label used on standard-class, technique-specific families; it is not a universal hardware specification	AJIST SD; JIGFORCE SD
SSD	Tailwalk's established standard-class series label; equipment still varies by product family	METALZON SSD
MB	Master Build: Tailwalk explicitly uses this for a Japanese-made offshore series	JIGFORCE MB
BM	Basic Model: Tailwalk explicitly uses this for the REACTIP basic-model line	REACTIP BM

Treat the complete series name as one label. MB and BM have documented expansions, but SD and SSD should not be decoded as promises of one fixed guide set, blank material, or price tier across every rod.

After identifying the family, compare its published guides, blank construction, reel seat, and model table. For example, HI-TIDE TZ specifies titanium-frame TORZITE guides, while JIGFORCE SD specifies Fuji SiC rings.

Start with S or C, then read the numbers

S identifies a spinning model; C identifies a casting model, including offshore rods used with conventional reels. FULLRANGE C66M and S65L illustrate the casting/spinning distinction.

The numbers that follow can combine length with either a jigging class or a section count. The series tells you which pattern applies.

Pattern A: length only

In these examples, the length block expresses feet followed by inches:

Length code	Read it as	Product example
66	6'6"	FULLRANGE C66M
83	8'3"	CRIMSON S83M-F
411	4'11"	Troutia feerique S411L/G
510	5'10"	FULLRANGE C510L/FSL
102	10'2"	CRIMSON C102M+-R

These readings match the manufacturer’s published lengths. 411 means 4 feet 11 inches; 102 means 10 feet 2 inches. Split the digits into feet and inches rather than reading them as a decimal length.

Pattern B: length plus a jigging class

JIGFORCE SD S5103 breaks into S / 510 / 3: spinning, 5'10", and the series’ 3-class designation. This model’s published jig limit is 180 g, with a maximum PE rating of #3.0.

The final number helps distinguish models within the lineup. The jig and line ratings remain separate specifications: the digit 3 is not a fixed conversion to a particular number of grams across every series.

Pattern C: length plus section count

NAMAZON MOBILLY includes the number of sections in its numeric block:

Model	Breakdown	Configuration
C584MH	C / 58 / 4 / MH	Casting, 5'8", four sections, Medium Heavy
S775MH	S / 77 / 5 / MH	Spinning, 7'7", five sections, Medium Heavy

Their published closed lengths are 48 cm and 52 cm, respectively. Here, 4 and 5 identify sections—not jigging power.

Separate power from action and lure rating

Letters such as UL, L, ML, M, and MH describe Ultra Light, Light, Medium Light, Medium, and Medium Heavy power classes. XUL means Extra Ultra Light in models such as Tai Game TZ C60XUL/FSL. A + modifier, as in ML+ or M+, places that model above the base label within its series; it does not create one universal lure-weight range across all Tailwalk rods.

A separate action designation describes the bending pattern. For example, CRIMSON S83M-F combines M power with Fast action. Always confirm the published lure or jig range because two rods carrying the same power letters can have different ratings.

Within CRIMSON, Tailwalk explicitly defines these suffixes:

Suffix	Meaning
-F	Fast action
-R	Regular action

The manufacturer positions its F models toward responsive lure control and its R models toward retrieving moving baits. These are action choices within the series, not rankings of overall quality.

Other rods state action in the specification table rather than in the name. AJIST SD S47/SSL, for example, is listed as EX FAST, meaning Extra Fast. The /SSL identifies its tip construction, not its action.

Read the lure or jig range separately as well. FULLRANGE C66M is rated for 3/16–3/4 oz, while NAMAZON MOBILLY C634M/G is rated for 3/16–1 oz. Both carry M, but their stated lure ranges differ.

/SL, /SSL, /TT, and /TISL: identify the tip

These codes distinguish tip construction:

Code	Tip specification	Example
/SL	Carbon solid tip	AJIST SD S63/SL
/SSL	Short carbon solid tip	AJIST SD S47/SSL
/TT	Tubular tip	AJIST SD S72/TT
/TISL	Titanium solid tip	EGIST TZ [New Gen] S80ML+/TISL

AJIST SD’s /SL tips use 30t carbon, while its /SSL tip uses 24t carbon. Those are this series’ material specifications; the codes identify the tip type. EGIST TZ describes /TISL as a shape-memory titanium-alloy solid tip.

Solid and tubular describe the tip’s structure. For how a particular rod handles a presentation, read the action and the model’s intended use alongside that construction.

/FSL: full-solid blank construction

/FSL identifies a full-solid specification, extending the construction beyond a solid tip. Tai Game TZ uses a carbon full-solid main blank joined to a tubular butt section in its one-and-a-half-piece arrangement.

That distinction matters when reading C60XUL/FSL: FSL describes the main blank, while the joint arrangement is another part of the rod’s construction.

/G: glass-composite construction

/G identifies glass-composite models, such as FULLRANGE C68ML/G and NAMAZON MOBILLY C634M/G. It describes the blank material, not the reel type or number of sections.

MPG and DM: a material name and a drag designation

MPG means Magnum Power Glass, the material used in SLOW BUMP MPG. On C613-DM10, DM10 means Drag Max 10 kg; the published jig limit is 350 g.

Tailwalk specifically explains that the final 3 or 5 in this series’ 613/615 codes serves as a reference for the intended jig-weight class rather than its usual power designation. The DM suffix separately communicates the published maximum drag.

/CC, -P4, -P5, and T: read the joint construction

Joint information can appear in the model name or the specification table.

Code in the model name	Meaning	Example
/CC	Center-cut two-piece	FULLRANGE C69M/CC
-P4	Four-piece pack rod	Troutia feerique S51L-P4
-P5	Five-piece pack rod	Troutia feerique S56ML-P5
-T	Telescopic construction	Troutia feerique S50L-T
/T after an action code	Telescopic construction	CRIMSON C66M-R/T

FULLRANGE uses /CC, while the two telescopic examples use different separators. Read the complete code rather than assigning a universal meaning to the slash or hyphen.

For example, CRIMSON C66M-R/T means casting, 6'6", Medium power, Regular action, and telescopic construction. Its section count is supplied separately in the specifications.

2(B), 1&H, and 1&Half are specification-table labels

These usually appear in the PIECE column:

Specification-table label	Meaning
2(B)	Two-section butt-joint construction
1&H / 1&Half	One-and-a-half-piece construction with an unequal-length section arrangement

For example, JIGFORCE SD S5103 is listed as 2(B) with a 115 cm closed length. Its casting counterpart, C5103, is 1&H with a 114 cm closed length. Tai Game TZ uses the written-out 1&Half designation.

For packing, use the actual closed length—not the piece count alone. A butt-joint rod and a center-cut rod can both separate into two parts while occupying very different amounts of storage space.

Six complete model names, decoded

AJIST SD S47/SSL

AJIST SD / S / 47 / SSL

AJIST SD series, spinning, 4'7", short carbon-solid tip. The model code stops there; action, lure rating, rod weight, and closed length remain separate specifications.

[[JDMAS:ajist-s47-ssl-product]]

EGIST TZ [New Gen] S86ML

EGIST TZ / S / 86 / ML

EGIST TZ series, spinning, 8'6", Medium Light power. The code does not contain the action, egi range, line rating, or closed length; those remain separate product-table fields.

[[JDMAS:egist-s86ml-product]]

Tai Game TZ [New Gen] C60XUL/FSL

Tai Game TZ / C / 60 / XUL / FSL

Tai Game TZ series, casting, 6'0", Extra Ultra Light power, full-solid main blank. XUL is the power designation, while the one-and-a-half-piece joint, lure rating, line rating, and closed length are supplied separately.

[[JDMAS:tai-game-c60xul-fsl-product]]

JIGFORCE SD S5103

JIGFORCE SD / S / 510 / 3

JIGFORCE SD series, spinning, 5'10", 3-class model. The final 3 distinguishes the class within this series; action, jig and line ratings, drag, and the 2(B) joint remain separate specifications.

[[JDMAS:jigforce-s5103-product]]

NAMAZON MOBILLY C584MH

NAMAZON MOBILLY / C / 58 / 4 / MH

NAMAZON MOBILLY series, casting, 5'8", four sections, Medium Heavy power. The code includes section count here, but action, lure and line ratings, and closed length still come from the specification table.

[[JDMAS:namazon-c584mh-product]]

Troutia feerique S50L-T

Troutia feerique / S / 50 / L / T

Troutia feerique series, spinning, 5'0", Light power, telescopic construction. The T identifies the telescopic format; the specification table—not the model code—supplies the section count, ratings, and closed length.

[[JDMAS:troutia-s50l-t-product]]

Read L1, L2, and replacement-part numbers

L1 and L2: grip dimensions

Tailwalk’s product tables publish L1 and L2 as grip dimensions in millimeters. Their endpoints are shown in the accompanying grip-type diagram, so compare the diagram as well as the numbers instead of assuming that every reel-seat layout is measured identically.

These dimensions provide useful context when comparing handles for two-handed casting or underarm support. Keep them separate from the rod’s overall fishing length and its closed length.

#1, #2, and #B: section identifiers for parts

Tailwalk numbers replacement rod sections from the tip toward the butt. #1 identifies the tip-side section; #2 is the next section. The final butt section may be labeled #B rather than a number.

When identifying a replacement, match the full series name and model code to the manufacturer’s parts diagram. A section number identifies a part within that rod—not an interchangeable section shared by every model.

Use the model code to build your shortlist

Begin with the series and intended technique. Read S or C for reel type, divide the numerical block into the appropriate length, class, or section-count pattern, then identify the power and construction suffixes.

The final comparison is between complete models: lure or jig rating, line specification, action, joint type, and closed length. This approach makes Tailwalk’s codes useful without asking a single letter or number to describe the entire rod.
