HAGANE

“HAGANE” is more than just a material name; it’s a design philosophy centered around creating reels that offer unmatched longevity and smoothness. The term "HAGANE" itself, which means "steel" in Japanese, symbolizes strength and resilience. However, in Shimano's context, it transcends traditional interpretations, representing a suite of advanced technologies aimed at enhancing performance and durability. In other words, when they say "HAGANE", they do not actually mean that HAGANE(= steel) is used. “HAGANE” promises robustness that can be used with peace of mind even in the harshest of conditions, an unchanging, exquisite winding feel, and winding power that exceeds the imagination."HAGANE Gear" or "HAGANE Body" is Shimano's engineering concept and philosophy.

MUTEKI MOTOR

Conventional motors generally use plastic magnets, which limit their power and torque.The MUTEKI MOTOR is a high-speed, high-torque brush motor that utilizes powerful neodymium magnets. This design enhances both the rotational speed and torque, making it an efficient and robust motor for demanding applications.

TOUCH DRIVE

Traditional electric reels used lever or dial systems for speed control, but TOUCH DRIVE introduces Shimano's unique new feature: a see-saw pressure-sensitive switch that can be operated with just one thumb. With TOUCH DRIVE, you can adjust the speed in 31 increments by varying the pressure applied by your thumb, and it also allows you to change the speed by one level with each press. This innovation enables precise adjustments and provides an unprecedented level of control.

TOUCH DRIVE SPEEDLOCK

TOUCH DRIVE SPEEDLOCK allows for instant retrieval at the desired speed (mid-speed setting) with a single touch. Just like a car accelerator, pressing the Touch Drive again will accelerate, and releasing it will decelerate, enabling you to follow the target's movements and achieve precise speed control.

FALLEVER

FALLEVER is a newly designed lever that allows for easy and precise control of fall speed, which was previously difficult to manage. By moving the lever forward or backward, you can adjust the mechanical brake to either increase or decrease the fall speed. This enables more strategic fishing, such as allowing the lure to fall quickly in mid-water and slowly near the bottom. Additionally, during casting, the brake can be applied to prevent backlash, and then smoothly released for a free fall. FALLEVER also allows for seamless operation of casting and subsequent actions with a single lever.

SPEED CLUTCH

Easily switch the clutch ON/OFF with a simple press of the clutch lever. Since clutch operation can be performed while thumb-suppressing the spool, it prevents annoying backlash. Moreover, this allows for quick clutch switching while keeping the spool pressed, ensuring that you don't miss your intended depth.

S COMPACT BODY

The S COMPACT BODY design reduces the diameter of the reel on the palming side compared to the handle side, creating a more comfortable grip that feels as if the reel is one size smaller. This enhances palming comfort and control.

FIRE MACH SYSTEM

To smoothly reverse the large-diameter spool, multiple SA-RB (Ball Bearings) are strategically placed along the main rotation axis. This design ensures high-speed drop performance with minimal resistance, comparable to the Super Free Spool used in smaller electric reels. It’s ideal for fishing with light rigs or when quick deployment to the target depth is crucial.

e-EXCITING DRAG SOUND

EXCITING DRAG SOUND is a feature that produces a sound when the line is pulled out from the spool by a fish. Unlike traditional baitcasting reels, which typically do not emit a drag sound, this feature enhances the angler's experience by stimulating their senses, making the fight with the fish even more enjoyable.The e-EXCITING DRAG SOUND is an electronic version of this.

Shimano collection with CI4+ technology feature illustration

CI4+

CI4+ is an advanced material used in Shimano reels. It is a reinforced carbon fiber composite that is lighter and stronger than conventional materials, providing increased rigidity and reducing weight, which enhances the overall performance and sensitivity of the reel.

SA-RB

A-RB bearings feature a special anti-corrosion treatment that significantly improves their rust resistance. The SA-RB takes this further by sealing the sides with anti-corrosion materials, greatly reducing salt crystallization and salt damage inside the bearing.

SUPER FREE SPOOL

SUPER FREE SPOOL is a system where the spool shaft is supported by only two bearings when the reel's clutch is disengaged. This design minimizes spool wobble and eliminates rotational resistance, allowing for exceptionally smooth and light spool free performance.
