For use in high-volume or production scenarios.  The Production Grade version of our reaction rod is made to the same dimensions as our standard reaction rod, but features a patent-pending tip.  The tip is made from A2 tool-steel and hardened to a Rockwell rating that allows for the ultimate in wearability while remaining ductile.  The tip is secured to the shaft with six steel pins and a retaining bolt.  The tip can be replaced as it approaches the end of its life cycle, while the rod can continue to serve an extended life.  Exclusive of the tip, the rod has the same milled ARCA foot for direct integration with Rock Vise and is constructed of 7075 structural aluminum and anodized clear.
