The c555 is lighter, and just a little bit stronger in most cases but not always. The f15 is comparable to c405, it is a little heavier though, and is a step "lower" (not neccesarily worse).

BRINE /WARRIOR /MATERIAL

f10 / alloy 2000 /aluminum
f15 / platinum alloy /platinum-CU31
f22 / kryptolyte /c405
f55 / kryptopro /c555

Hope I helped, and even after all this I must say, PREFERENCE.
Go check out some of your friends poles or whatever, see which you like. good luck.

basically their are 4 levels of aluminum shafts.

basic aluminum (f-10,alloy 2000,al6000)-these are crap, as i said. crap.

then their the upgraded version. Cu31(warrior platinum, STX sabre, Brine F-15, Brine Ignite) these are such a high step over the alloys.


then there is C405, being the workhorse handle. These include (warrior kryptos, STX axes, Brine F-22, etc.) there not to much stronger then the cu-31s, but they are signifigantly lighter.

And then the c555, basically what your paying for is light shaft, comparable to the strength of a cu31, these are very light shafts, that dent a lot. but usually stay straight and usuable.



so in my opinion, i dont believe the C555 is worth the extra money to get.

I own 4 c405s, and just about swear by them. they are consistently durable and decently light. while at the same time being relativly cheap at around 40 bucks if you know where to look.
