TECHNOLOGIES – DAIWA
■ MONOCOQUE BODY
With support from a new full metal MONOCOQUE (MQ) body concept, 25 SALTIGA has gained extra strength and retrieve power compared to previous models.A new MONOCOQUE (MQ) body design further enlarges internal body space to allow larger drive gear to be installed. MQ construction also allows the engine plate to replace the need for screws to stabilise the drive gear. MQ concept improves support of the internal parts and adds durability and resistance to intrusion.
■ POWERDRIVE DESIGNA design philosophy that pursues toughness and power above all else to deliver anglers the ultimate strength.The next generation of large spinning reels have been designed in pursuit of powerful reliability, enabling anglers to target the largest fish around the world.
POWERDRIVE DESIGN consists of two technology units: the body unit “POWERDRIVE ENGINE” and the rotor unit “POWERDRIVE ROTOR”.
■ POWERDRIVE ENGINEExperience raw strength redefined with the POWERDRIVE ENGINE body unit. Featuring an OVERSIZED POWER DIGIGEAR and POWER ROLLER OSCILLATION system, it delivers unmatched winding power, smoothness and durability.
■ OVERSIZED POWER DIGIGEARSIZE THAT COMMANDS PERFORMANCE
Built with G1 duralumin for exceptional durability, the MONOCOQUE BODY design accommodates a larger, thicker gear—10% larger and 6% thicker than the previous model. Precisely engineered gear teeth enhance drive efficiency, while minimal deflection ensures stable, consistent meshing. This reduces power loss, providing smooth and effortless winding performance.
■ ROLLER POWER OSCILLATIONSMOOTH UNDER PRESSURE
The redesigned two-ball bearing pillar support system enhances oscillation efficiency by 20%, ensuring smooth, responsive, and powerful winding, even under heavy loads. Frictional resistance is significantly reduced, providing reliable performance and ultimate control when tackling the strain of the largest fish in the ocean.
■ POWERDRIVE ROTORPOWER MEETS PRECISION
The new POWERDRIVE ROTOR is engineered for strength and efficiency. Crafted to handle the heaviest loads, this rotor delivers superior stability, allowing anglers to pull in the largest of fish with ease. The unique shape, which appears as though it was cut from a sphere, maintains low inertia and has an increased rigidity of 7%.
The POWERDRIVE ROTOR ensures that each turn of the handle translates into a smoother, more powerful retrieve, even under extreme pressure.
■ CRANK POWER BAILALWAYS IN CONTROL
The new crank-shaped design directs line smoothly to the line roller without fail. The redesigned shape and spring mechanism enhances opening and closing angles, preventing unintentional bail movement. This improvement significantly enhances line feeding to the roller, especially during jigging and while the line is tensioned.
■ TOUGH LINE ROLLER SYSTEM
ENHANCED LINE MANAGEMENT
The redesigned TOUGH LINE ROLLER SYSTEM is enlarged to endure repeated heavy loads, and the updated design better integrates the screw with the bail arm. Removing joints at high-stress points enhances rigidity and durability around the line roller. The new line roller, optimised for PE braided lines, reduces sliding resistance by approximately 3%.
■ DRDDRD DRAG SYSTEM
Drags that use carbon washers are highly durable, but DRD takes it to another level with a new drag mechanism designed to target larger fish. Equipped with eight metal rollers on a single metal plate, DRD controls the loss of drag force caused by frictional heat. It is smooth under pressure and is 5x times more durable.
■ ATD TOUGHThe ATD TOUGH DRAG delivers exceptional drag strength and smoothness. The large carbon drag stack provides anglers with the ultimate in smooth performance and reliability.
■ MAGSEALEDMAGSEALED is a technology that implements a special liquid material developed originally for aerospace engineering called MAGOIL. MAGOIL is used to create a water and dust-resistant barrier in lieu of traditional rubber seals. This is an innovative water resistance method that maintains rotational performance. The ultimate focus of MAGSEAL was to protect the gearing inside the reel body and the bearings. Two of the key components to protect if overall performance is to be preserved.
■ LC-ABS SWPrecise line flow.
DAIWA’s “LC-ABS SW” technology enhances power and rigidity. The spool’s upper section is optimised with a two-step taper toward the spool ring, minimising friction for smoother line release.
Its narrow width prevents tangling, even during the final stages of casting with less line remaining. This design ensures smooth casting with thick lines and improves casting distance by approximately 2% providing anglers with an improved casting experience.
