JRC CONRODS

JRC Billet Alloy Rods pre-date current ownership.  We will mention them in this article due to the inquiries we continue to receive.

This product was sold by the original JRC founder John R. Calicchio.

Bill Getty acquired the company in 1987 and the tooling for the rods was not included in the purchase. Tooling was undoubtedly scrapped many years ago after the original owner went into the computer industry. Little information is available except a single page of instructions.
