Batson GAFF HOOK SS316 3"

Ultimate Strength & Corrosion Resistance: Batson ForeCast SS316 3" Gaff Hook When you’re landing big game at the rail, your equipment is only as strong as its weakest link. The Batson ForeCast 3" Gaff Hook (GAFFHKT3) is purpose-built to ensure that link never breaks. Forged from SS316 Stainless Steel, this hook offers the highest level of protection against rust and pitting, even with constant exposure to salt spray and brine.  

Engineered for Custom Builders Designed specifically for the rod-building community, this hook features a integrated reverse tang. Unlike standard hooks that rely solely on adhesive, the tang provides a mechanical lock within the blank, ensuring the hook won't twist or pull out under the weight of a heavy catch.  

Key Features:

• Marine-Grade SS316: Superior corrosion resistance compared to standard stainless steels.  

• Precision Hook Angle: Optimized for fast, deep penetration and secure holding power.

• 3-Inch Gap: The ideal "all-around" size for a wide variety of offshore species.

• Reverse Tang Design: Provides a secure, permanent bond when used with epoxy and thick-walled E-glass blanks.

• Compatibility: Perfectly matched for Rainshadow Gaff Blanks (models GAFFH23, GAFFH43, and GAFFH63).

Whether you are building a traditional bamboo gaff or a modern E-glass tool, the Batson ForeCast SS316 hook delivers the professional-grade reliability required for offshore success.
