The Fibre 3 Contact Fire Staff is the 3rd generation of our ultra-strong pure fibreglass core fire staffs. The Fibre 3 range has been specifically designed to be used as contact staffs. The fiberglass core is heavy, resulting in an outstanding amount of momentum. This means that the Fibre 3s continue to rotate, and feel like they're stuck to you, even at slow speeds. 

The double burners on these staffs create two rings of flame as they are spun.

The 140cm version is the most popular size of Fibre 3. Ideal for single contact and suitable for all but the shortest spinners. The 140cm is also great for doubles contact but this does require a reasonable amount of strength and the 140cm staff may be a bit long for some people's taste.

The Fibre 3s have a number of innovative features:

- The fibreglass core is so strong that these staffs are virtually indestructible. Fibreglass also doesn't conduct heat well meaning the shaft will not get hot, even after repeated burns. The discreet flex provided by the core is firm enough to not hinder play but it can still absorb shock from the highest throws.

- Aluminium heat shields and bash guards cover 20cm of either end of the staff. These help to concentrate weight at the extremities adding momentum and fluidity to the staff. It also means that the contact surface area is 80cm of the total 140cm length.

- The 140cm model comes equipped with two whopping burners each made from 80cm of 100mm wide wick, considerably more than most other brands of fire staff. The large wicks guarantee long lasting and consistent burns and add further weight to the ends of the staff providing yet more momentum..

- There are two types of grip available on the Fibre 3s; silicone or cushion grip:

The silicone grip provides a huge amount of friction and is fused to the core with a heat and fuel proof silicone adhesive. The silicone grip also comes marked with a luminous centre point and two other handy glow in the dark points equidistant from the centre. These two marks are usefully positioned at the areas you would hold the staff for entry into moves like the SNES or Matrix.

The cushion grip is the same padded grip we use on our aluminium staffs, only twice the length. This gives a large area of friction that will forgive those little inaccuracies. The cushion grip performs slightly better than the silicone in wet conditions and the red/black spiral of the grip looks especially good in rolling moves like Steves or Angel Rolls. Unfortunately the extra cost of this quality grip means the staff is slightly more expensive than its silicone counterpart.

- Most other, non-Firetoys, staffs have a limited lifespan as the wicks are secured with screws that eventually wear away the core. The bolts we use to attach the wick to the shaft go right through the entire burner and screw into each other ensuring the wicks are tightly secured and easy to replace. The biggest advantage these bolts give our staffs over others on the market is that they won't cause deterioration to the core during re-wicking as they screw into each other and not the core. This greatly increases the life of our fire staffs.

The Fibre 3 Contact Fire Staffs have been tried and tested by many awesome contact staffers who have provided feedback resulting in the work horse of a staff you see before you. The Fibre 3s are hugely popular and have become a favourite among contact staff spinners in the UK and internationally. Check out this contact staff performance for inspiration.
