Hagane Gear<br />

With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE<br />

Gear is at the very heart of the reel. Shimano,<br />

through the application of state-of-the-art technologies,<br />

gives you the long-lasting smoothness<br />

and pleasure that you feel when you first use a<br />

reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied<br />

to the teeth of the drive gear. Instead the<br />

entire surface is calculated in minute detail by<br />

special 3D design and then formed by Shimano’s<br />

cold forging technology. <strong>The</strong> result is assured resilience.<br />

It’s the fruit of Shimano’s inexhaustible<br />

pursuit for durability; the strength and power of<br />

forged metal continues to represent the fundamental<br />

concept of Shimano reels.<br />

X-Ship<br />

X-Ship provides improved gear durability. By supporting<br />

the pinion gear on both ends with bearings,<br />

the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with<br />

the drive gear. This means the gears will stay in<br />

the same position under the heaviest loads. <strong>The</strong><br />

added benefit is that friction between the spool<br />

shaft and gear are eliminated. This will enhance<br />

the casting performance of the reel with lighter<br />

lures, and allow for longer casts.
