Shimano Twinpower XD FA Front Drag Spinning Reel

The toughest offering in Shimano's MagnumLite series of spinning reels, the all-new TwinPower XD FB incorporates Shimano's latest premium spinning reel technologies to elevate inshore angling performance. Constructed from CI4+ carbon-reinforced resin, the MGL Rotor provides light and sensitive rotation for increased precision and lure control during technical inshore angling. With a focus on improved drag performance and an enhanced reeling experience, the new TwinPower XD FB adds Shimano's Duracross technology for improved drag smoothness and longevity while also incorporating InfinityDrive and InfinityXross technologies for increased winding power and enhanced gear durability. Built to endure harsh saltwater environments, a new X-Protect design reduces reeling noise and improves bearing longevity by draining water to the outermost point of the reel. The addition of Shimano's InfinityLoop technology enhances line lay to improve casting performance and increase drag consistency by reducing drag spikes. A reel built for toughness without sacrificing sensitivity, the TwinPower XD FB has no equal for inshore anglers.

Features:

• MGL Rotor: MGL ROTOR adopts asymmetrical rotor construction and seeks to improve operability and sensitivity, achieving a different dimension of rotational lightness. Furthermore, the line roller is made lighter, the bail is made of titanium, and the rotor wall thickness is optimally arranged to successfully reduce rotational inertia.
• X Protect: In addition to conventional water repellent treatment, a labyrinth structure that suppresses water penetration is combined to achieve high waterproof performance despite the non-contact. Adopts for stopper bearings section, line roller section, and others.
• Anti-twist Fin: Anti-twist Fin reduces line slack and prevents line from falling off the bottom of the spool, and also reduces the phenomenon of line wrapping around the spool with twisting.
