5 SHIMANO REEL TECHNOLOGY
TECHNOLOGY
S A-RB
These shielded A-RB bearings use either a rubber shield or stainless steel shield (depending on bearing size) for the ultimate in corrosion resistance and contaminant protection.
Aero Wrap II
NEW
Aerowrap II is a worm gear oscillation system with a specially designed pitch to create optimal oscillation speeds for the ARC lip design. It provides uniform line lay and winding shape to prevent loss of energy during cast while providing longer casts than other oscillation systems. So, casting distance increases with less effort required.

EXTRA SMOOTH & HIGH POWER
Reel Specification Key
The pinion gear is supported at both ends by our S-ARB bearings. This gives a super smooth operation. A larger diameter drive gear transmits more power to the pinion gear. The result is a smoother and higher powered retrieve.

Cold Forging
Cold Forging (a Shimano proprietary technology) is the heart of Shimano’s quality engineering and manufacturing. It enables us to make components out of one piece metal which assures increased strength, higher abbrasion resistance, higher resistance against impact damage and rigidity. Cold Forging is used on drive gears, spools and handles.
