Full details

The Matrix 3D-R Rigid Feeder Arm is designed for anglers seeking a stable and reliable rod support system, particularly on commercial fisheries and natural waters. Its key benefit is the rigid design that minimizes rod bounce for increased accuracy and bite detection.

Troubleshooting

Feeder arm feels unstable

Ensure the 3D fitting is securely tightened to the seat box legs. Check that the seat box legs are on a stable surface. Ensure all adjustment locks are fully tightened.

Rod rest thread is stiff

Clean the threaded insert with a soft brush and check for any debris. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary.

Fitting doesn't seem to grip seat box legs properly

Confirm your seat box leg diameter matches the feeder arm's compatibility (25mm, 30mm, 36mm round). Ensure the clamping mechanism is fully engaged.

Difficulty achieving desired angle

Loosen the multi-angle lock completely before attempting to adjust the angle. Ensure the height bar is also adjusted appropriately to complement the angle.
