Century Rod ferrule wrap

I normaly wrap the ferrule on 2 piece rods. the Century Full Metal jacket blank is extremely thick. I contacted Mike 2 Sea Isle and was told it wasn't necessary with this blank. Do you advise wrapping anyway?

Not necessary at all to wrap. infact your FMJ should have come with a stainless steel collar that get fit and epoxied in place.
