INFINITE POWER THE STELLA SW REPRESENTS THE PINNACLE OF INNOVATION FOR SHIMANO REEL TECHNOLOGY AND FISH-FIGHTING PERFORMANCE. For increased power and enhanced durability, this series features a range of upgrades. Infinity Drive has been incorporated for light and powerful winding and the upgraded Heatsink Drag provides superior drag performance under extreme heat. A water resistance rating of IPX8 is achieved through X-Protect and X-Shield with the aluminium Hagane Body acting as a rigid and super tough outer shell. The HG models are designed for both casting and jigging, whereas PG is geared for jigging applications and XG for saltwater casting.

Light and Powerful Winding With Infinity Drive, the pinion gear inner does not make contact with the main shaft, as high-sliding bushing supports the main shaft and sliding resistance is reduced. In addition to this, a special skidding coating on the main shaft helps to further reduce sliding resistance. Infinity Drive cuts handle rotation torque by about 30 per cent in comparison to the conventional system, and makes the reel more powerful. This enables anglers to wind more aggressively, even under heavy load.
X-Ship In addition to an enlarged drive gear, optimum positioning of the pinion and drive gears, and two-point support of the pinion gear whose ends are supported by bearings, all these mechanisms deliver robust gear engagement. The X-Ship system permits smooth winding, even under heavy loads.
Hagane Gear
Hagane Body
The Hagane Gear is produced by applying approximately 200 tons of pressure to the raw metal through unique technology called Precision Cold Forging. Delivered with micron accuracy, no cutting work is involved.
The The Hagane Body chassis is made of highly rigid aluminum alloy. It eliminates flex, warp and distortion of the reel, and protects the engagement of gears inside. This allows for smoother winding.
Hard and tough, the Hagane Gear has high durability and delivers smooth winding.
Upgraded Drag with Heat Resistance By verifying the thickness of the aluminum alloy rotor body through detailed 3D analysis, strong rigidity, high durability and excellent rotational balance is created.
The ‘Heat Sink Panel’, where the heat generated by drag is released, stops any decrease in drag performance, due to thermal sagging, by around 50 per cent.
Thanks to its strong rigidity, the X-Rigid Rotor contributes to improved effectiveness of various parts such as the drag.
The ‘Insulation Sheet’, which blocks heat transfer to the spool, prevents spool temperatures from increasing by around 30 per cent.*

SUPERIOR Water Resistance
Silent Drive
X-Protect was developed for stopper bearing protection in the previous model and provided high level water resistance. The Stella SW employs X Protect for its line roller as well, and further improves its waterproofing performance and bearing durability is ten times greater than conventional designs.
From the body design through to the most intricate parts of the drive train including the drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin and worm shaft gear, every piece has been carefully reviewed. Consequently, the smallest clearance gaps and wobbles have been eliminated to the highest tolerances. As a result, a new generation of silky smooth winding performance and pristine silence has been achieved.
*As a result of comparison tests by Shimano.
X-Rigid Rotor
HIGH RIGIDITY & DURABILITY
THE SHIMANO TWIN POWER HAS A PROUD 30 YEARS OF HISTORY SINCE ITS BIRTH. For 2020, the newly released model is equipped with a metal rotor that integrates the Coresolid philosophy of quality and solidness. This has been pursued for many years and engineered to suppress distortion and twisting of the reel body underload. When paired with the metal Hagane Body, the rigidity and durability of the frame has been improved significantly. To improve casting performance, the new Long Stroke Spool design has been incorporated. The Twin Power series has continued to evolve into a tough and dependable reel that fisherman can use with confidence in any conditions.

Upgraded and More Robust Gearing
By combining the internal water repellent and the labyrinth structure, it achieves performance that can repel water without losing the lightness of rotation. This features in the line roller section and the roller clutch assembly (anti-reverse). As a result, the durability of the line roller has been improved more than five times (compared to our conventional product).
The Hagane body is a lightweight metal body that suppresses impact under extreme loads and power loss due to deflection and twisting.
Hagane Gear has become the cornerstone of many of Shimano’s finest spinning reels. With Shimano’s own precision cold forging technology, the NEW Twin Power, has improved gear durability and is equipped with a newly designed Hagane gear with equivalent strength to the upper model.

COMPACT LEVER DRAG OVERHEADS WITH DUAL GEAR RATIOS AND PLENTY OF CRANKING POWER — THE SPEEDMASTER LDII ARE MULTI-PURPOSE REELS THAT WILL SLOT RIGHT IN TO A NUMBER OF OFFSHORE FISHING SCENARIOS. With gear strength comparable to the trusted Talica series, the newly released 20 and 25 size is designed for game fisherman who are looking for an affordable compact lever drag that is suitable for both mono and braid line classes. This is in addition to the existing 12 and 16 size which are available in two speed ratios with the lower gear being handy when you have to bust a fish out of a deep-sounding mindset.
2OLDII
Being a lever drag, they are also versatile enough to fish a variety of line classes and drag settings, with maximum drag power of 18 to 20kg — that’s a lot for a little reel! The single piece Hagane Body means the stresses and strains associated with higher drag settings keeps all internals in perfect alignment and meshing smoothly, assisted in this regard by the presence of four S-ARB bearings. To ensure longevity of the gears in saltwater, Coreprotect coating has been applied to the pinion bearing to act as a water repellent barrier.

FOR 2020, THE ZODIAS HAS UNDERGONE A SIGNIFICANT UPGRADE AND NOW FEATURES SHIMANO’S EXCLUSIVE CARBON MONOCOQUE BUTT FOR THE ULTIMATE IN SENSITIVITY. The Full Carbon Monocoque rod butt is made of a hollow carbon construction, eliminating the use of EVA from the rear grip. This results in a very lightweight construction that is extremely sensitive and improves vibration transmission through the rod blank to your hand when working a lure. To provide the exact balance between power and finesse, the 2020 Zodias continues to feature Shimano’s Hi-Power X graphite blank and Ci4+ Reel Seat and upgraded Fuji Stainless Alconite K guides with a SiC tip. With 12 models in the range that have been engineered with specifically tuned actions for a range of lure fishing styles. There is three baitcast rods coming in lengths of 5’10, 6’0 and 7’5” and nine spin models ranging from 6’4” to 7’ in varying line ratings and actions. The rods are finished with the slick red and black cosmetics that have made the Zodias series a perfect match for many Shimano reels.
