The Lapis190 is a long-awaited downsized model of Megatech's titanium diving pencil Lapis210, which is highly corrosion resistant, has high strength, and durable.
The size has been built from the core body size that is most frequently used in casting games. The slim body makes it easier to catch water when diving, and the stable flight balance makes it possible to get great distance when casting.
From the product developer:
"When I put the LIVRE custom handle "POWER 98" in a tub filled with water, I suddenly noticed that the titanium knob "EP50" was floating with the handle slightly lifted.
I learned there that the thin-walled hollow titanium knob has considerable buoyancy, and this event triggered the development of the titanium lure.
First of all, I decided to make an offshore casting lure.
Among them, I chose a diving pencil that is a classic but capable of having a versatile action.
Titanium, which has excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and durability compared to the materials used for lures in the past, can be said to be suitable as a lure that confronts harsh conditions of use in the sea and large fish.
In addition, the hard surface has the advantage that the hooking rate is considerably improved because the lure can be slid without the teeth such as tuna and GT biting into it.
Manufactured by investing the technology cultivated in the manufacture of custom handles such as metal processing and welding. However, it was far from the action that I thought I would do a swim test, and it just floated.
Every day of trial and error, we remade the mold many times and compare the effects on the action by finely changing the weight fixing method and weight balance, including the positions of the eyes and hooks.
Believe in the power hidden in titanium! "
