American Tackle Virtus Light Ring Lock Guides
American Tackle Virtus™ Light Ring Lock® GuidesHeavy-Duty Strength. Lighter Build. Pro-Level Control. Built with the same patented technology as the Virtus Heavy series, the American Tackle Virtus Light Ring Lock® Guides offer a lighter-weight alternative without sacrificing durability or stability. These guides are perfect for medium to heavy-duty applications where reducing rod weight matters—without giving up the confidence that comes with serious hardware. Featuring the official Ring Lock® System, Virtus Light guides lock ceramic rings in place using a combination of pressure-fit design, enlarged adhesive reservoirs, and increased frame-to-ring contact—minimizing ring failure under torque, impact, or heavy loads. Crafted with ATLAS 316 Stainless Steel, these frames are saltwater-safe, corrosion-resistant, and engineered for exceptional strength-to-weight performance. Why Ring Lock®?
