Technology Features of DAIWA 2021 Gekkabijin AIR TW PE SPECIAL 8.5L
G1 DURALUMIN SPOOL
G1 Duralumin is an advanced aluminum alloy that boasts twice the strength of magnesium and is 1.3 times stronger than super-duralumin. Known for being extremely lightweight, this material is also highly rigid, making it the top choice among lightweight alloys used in aircraft structures and precision instruments. To achieve an exceptionally lightweight feel without compromising strength, the winding surface of the spool has been thinned without any blanking in material, preserving its full strength. The result is unmatched rotational responsiveness due to its lightness and highly precise rotation thanks to its superior rigidity.
UTD (Baitcasting)
By re-evaluating the washers and grease from the ground up, DAIWA has refined the drag system to reduce initial resistance when a fish is hooked, ensuring the line starts to slip smoothly and consistently. This advanced drag system, which surpasses the previously established standards set by DAIWA, is designated as "UTD" (Ultimate Tournament Drag).
