The 2.5oz tip offers responsive sensitivity and works well with standard basket feeders at moderate distances. The 3.5oz is stiffer and more powerful, designed to cast heavier feeders farther and handle extreme distance situations. Choose based on your feeder weight and target distance.
These tips are specifically designed for Matrix X-Class feeder rods. The 2.8mm diameter and ring configuration match X-Class blanks. While other rods may fit, we recommend confirming your rod model matches the X-Class series for optimal performance.
The large-diameter Fuji Alconite K-rings significantly reduce friction during casting. This allows you to cast heavier feeders farther with less effort, and it minimizes line twist and abrasion. The larger ring design is engineered specifically for long-range basket feeder work.
Absolutely. Many distance anglers carry both the 2.5oz and 3.5oz tips in their tackle box and switch based on the day's conditions, feeder weight, and target distance. It's one of the key advantages of this modular design — you don't need two separate rods.
The 2.8mm measurement is the diameter of the rod tip itself where it connects to your rod blank. This diameter is engineered to fit Matrix X-Class feeder rods precisely and is critical for proper blank compatibility, signal transmission, and durability under casting load.
No special tools required. Simply slide the old tip off the rod blank and slide the new one on. The fit is designed to be snug but without requiring force or adhesive. Make sure both the tip socket and blank are clean before fitting for best results.

The Horizon X Pro Distance range delivers interchangeable carbon feeder tips engineered for anglers targeting distant marks. With a precisely designed 2.8mm diameter and large-diameter Fuji Alconite K-rings, these tips reduce friction and maximize casting efficiency with basket feeders and Method rigs.
Available in two test curves — 2.5oz for balanced sensitivity and 3.5oz for maximum power — these tips let you match your setup to prevailing conditions without changing rods. Both feature carbon construction that withstands repeated casting while maintaining a responsive tip for reliable bite detection.
The 2.5oz tip handles standard-distance work with standard basket feeders, offering a responsive action and excellent feedback. The 3.5oz delivers the stiffness needed for heavier feeders and extreme distances, where extra casting power is essential. Keep both in your tackle box for complete flexibility.
These interchangeable tips fit Matrix X-Class feeder rod blanks, allowing you to switch setups instantly without buying new rods. The proven Fuji Alconite ring design reduces friction during the cast, helping heavier feeders reach otherwise unreachable feeding zones.
