Technology
Hagane
HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.
The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminate body flexing on the reel while fighting a fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power,
S A-RB
By applying a special anti-rust treatment to the bearing itself, the durability against rust has been greatly improved. The S A-RB is also sealed with rust-proof material on the sides, which greatly reduces salt corrosion due to salt recrystallization inside the bearing.
