T-rods do not use alconite guides, they use aluminum oxide guides.

Too be honest I am not sure any Daiwa rods use alconites?
Biggs is correct as I meant Aluminum Oxide.

The Daiwa rods that I remember that used Alconite guides are the VIP rods (discontinued) and some Daiwa Saltist and Saltiga rods. :D
