Technology

 

Spiral X Core
A next-generation basic structure that has evolved by using high-strength materials. Using Shimano's unique design and manufacturing methods, we thoroughly pursue further increased strength in all directions, including bending, screwing, and crushing. Shimano's original basic structure Spiral X, which enhances rod performance from the core, uses carbon tape made of high-strength resin realized by nanoalloy® technology. We have achieved even higher strength with selected materials. Compared to general structures, it achieves 1.4 times the screw strength and 2.5 times the crushing strength (compared to our company). Furthermore, compared to Spiral X, we achieved a 10% increase in screw strength and a 15% increase in crushing strength (compared to our company).

Soft Tube Top
The special design adds the suppleness of a solid to the lightweight and highly sensitive tubular tip. It also features a clean bend without stagnation.
*INSTALLED ON 480ML-T ONLY.


Ci4+
Ci4+ is a further evolution of Shimano's proprietary C14 material reinforced with carbon fiber. Its features are that it is lighter and has higher strength than conventional resins.

Line Up

 

480ML-T

Equivalent to No.1 ISO rod
480ML-T is a delicate model with a soft tube top on the tip. It is characterized by the fact that it is easy to use light weight floats and detect small bites well. Not only can it be used for catching Kingfish off the wharves and rocks but it can also be used for ISO fishing for Bream, Trevally, Blackfish and Drummer.

380M-T

Equivalent to 1.5 ISO rod
The 380M-T is lightweight, easy to move, has a length that is easy to handle, has biting performance and has the power to float fish. By designing the tip to be short, it can also be used for egiing. Pursuing nimble maneuverability not only on rocks and docks, but also in locations where you are fishing in close.

460M-T

Equivalent to 1.7 ISO rod
The 460M-T is a lightweight and nimble blank that won't make you feel tired even after using it all day long. Achieves accurate line control with light operation for various bait fishing such as float fishing. With lures, you can accurately trace them to your feet by taking advantage of the rod length. 

460MH-T

Equivalent to 1.7 ISO rod
All-round 460MH-T. Since the entire rod has a moderate firmness, it is characterized by linear operability. For bait fishing, we match a wide range of fishing methods, from targeting Bonito, Tailor, Salmon and Kingfish using small to medium sized jigs and plugs to ISO fishing,

360H-T

Equivalent to No.2 ISO rod
360H-T with awareness of lure operation. The tip has an unequal length design and is set to a length that makes it easy to perform the jerking action during light shore jigging, eging and etc. The length is easy to handle and trouble-free even when bait fishing, so it can be used in a variety of fields. The power in the butt section gives you a sense of security after hooking up to a fish.


 420H-T

Equivalent to No.2 ISO rod
420H-T is useful in scenes where you are expected to interact with a big game. For lures, it matches the free winding of jigs and plugs on high ledges. This rod is ideal for targeting medium size Kingfish.
