Shielded Anti-Rust Bearings
provide even smoother operation.
Shielded Antirust
Bearings
A special corrosion-resistant material is applied to the surface of conventional antirust bearings to
minimize saltwater penetration and these bearings are located at strategic locations to achieve even
smoother performance.
These enable dramatically improved casting performance when fishing for spear squid, as well as
improved float fishing performance — something that was said to be difficult to achieve with a
powered reel.
This has been made possible by the optimum balance that has been achieved between the safety bar
and the level winder, which is the part that is said to cause line tangles when float fishing.
Not only are these bearings resistant to rust, but they also minimize the formation of salt crystals inside
the bearings, which can lead to corrosion.
