SHIMANO’S TH

ANNIVERSARY

A significant milestone in the Shimano history has been reached on March 21st, which saw Shimano celebrate its centennial anniversary. Shimano began from the dreams that Shozaburo Shimano, a knife craftsman from Sakai-City, aspired to achieve through unique metal working technology.

For the last 100 years Shimano have been striving to bring people closer to nature through developing bicycle, fishing tackle and rowing equipment.

The first ever item off the production line in 1921 was the 3.3.3 single freewheel for the cycling trade, but it was not until 1970 that the company made its first foray in the fishing tackle industry, via the #BB2 reel.

This reel was well received, and Shimano took advantage of its experience in gear development and manufacturing to introduce the DUX spinning reel, and from there, Shimano has introduced over 100-iconic reel series.

To celebrate this amazing achievement, Shimano has prepared a special commemorative website which looks back through the last century and champions the amazing developments made over that time. This can be viewed at www.shimano.com/en/100th/

Shimano has always been, and always will be, providing highly trusted quality and deliver captivating products for the next 100 years.

INFINITY LOOP

Creates a precise winding pattern. The evolution of the internal structure extends the spool's oscillation and enables the spool to move up and down at an extremely low speed. This precise winding pattern drastically reduces friction as the line leaves the spool during a cast. The result is smooth and exceptional casting performance.

INFINITY XROSS

Achieves overwhelming gear durability. Advances in manufacturing technology and gear tooth design have improved surface area contact and meshing between the drive gear and pinion gear. This efficiently distributes the load placed on surfaces of the gear tooth over a wider area. This revolutionary design prevents damage from stress points and doubles the durability compared to conventional gear designs.

DURA CROSS

A revolutionary new drag washer that has been designed using cutting-edge materials woven in an orthogonal pattern. The result is a drag system that produces perfectly smooth consistent drag pressure, while utilizing a material that is more than 10 times more durable for added performance.

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.

UPGRADED DRAG WITH HEAT RESISTANCE

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.

The ‘Insulation Sheet’, which blocks heat transfer to the spool, prevents spool temperatures from increasing by around 30 per cent.

ANTI-TWIST FIN

Ensures trouble-free line management. A flexible polymer fin is installed near the line roller to maintain line tension and prevent line from wrapping around the spool in an uneven manner. STELLA FK also features a redesigned spool edge and drag knob that minimizes the possibility of the line becoming snagged. Utilizing technology with a proven track record in Stella SW, a proprietary barrier coat is applied for strong abrasion resistance.

SEAMLESS GEAR ENGAGEMENT

From the fundamental, whole body design to the most intricate parts of the drive train, including the drive gear, wormshaft, wormshaft pin and wormshaft gear, every piece has been carefully reviewed, and the smallest clearance gaps and wobbles have been eliminated to the highest tolerances.

LONG STROKE SPOOL

SMOOTHER GEARING

ULTRA LIGHT FRICTION FREE ROTATION

SVS INFINITY

MICROMODULE

O-rings are placed on the inner and outer diameters of the bearing which improves the degree of adhesion with the sha and frame. is improved adhesion reduces internal rattling, eliminates any rotational loss and achieves silence when cranking and a smooth feel.

With the gear teeth super-re ned to the limit, the “MicroModule Gear System” enables seamless engagement and power transmission. e System, without compromising strength, reduces noise and provides far better sensitivity.

X-Ship stands for Extra, Smooth and High Power. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with SA-RB bearings (on Stella models) and introducing a bigger drive gear, Shimano increased gearing e ciency and higher power. is results in a shing reel with ultra-light handle rotation for less e ort, even under heavy loads. is increases the e ciency of the reel, meaning it will stay smoother and perform at its peak for much longer.

G Free Body technology has been developed to shi the reel’s centre of gravity closer to the rod. is has been achieved by moving the worm sha oscillation mechanism 19mm up from the bottom of the reel to the top. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the angler’s hand position, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhances casting comfort.

e lightweight MagnumLite (MGL) Spool design signi cantly reduces the moment of inertia at the beginning of a cast by roughly 10%. is allows anglers to experience greater casting distance by up to 20% as well as increased accuracy with a wider variety of lures.

e redesigned Magnumlite Rotor delivers ultra light, almost friction free rotation, enabling you to control the retrieve with ultimate precision and sensitivity.

By placing sealing gaskets in 12 critical locations throughout the rigid aluminium body, we are able to create a water resistant structure that can hold up against the toughest conditions and sh that Mother Nature has to o er.

e concept of CoreProtect is simple... to provide water resistance without creating a heavy rotation feeling. ere are three key areas of the reel that require protection: the roller clutch, the body and the line roller.

Incorporating large diameter drag washers at the base of the spool provides greater drag stability. e result is smooth and consistent drag performance throughout the ght. e Coil Wave Spring features steady elasticity at any compression level, and little deformation under repeated compression. is results in precise drag adjustments throughout the curve, giving the angler more control at high drag pressure.

We have upgraded our light-weight carbon material Ci4. Keeping it light weight, rigidity and durability of the material under shing conditions is highly improved. From this characteristic, we were able to reduce the volume and weight of the rotor and the body.

e Shimano Stable Spool Design technology features balanced and uniform thin wall aluminium construction throughout the spool. is precision signi cantly reduces spool vibration and creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving.

Shimano's centrifugal braking system suppresses rapid spool rotation, line backlash, and improves casting performance. is is due to a wider brake adjustment range via the external dial, enabling greater versatility when casting di ering lure weights from light to heavy.

e long stroke spool design improves casting performance when compared to the previous model due to improved line ow from the spool.

A spool designed with a V-shape spool lip ensures the line comes o the reel in smaller loops, for longer, more accurate casting.

is audible and highly exciting electronic sound that the reel makes when the mode is selected.

Compact Body Design reduces weight and allows for better grip and leverage while ghting a sh.

LCD screen for easy use and operation.

It's all about leverage! We've repositioned the handle closer to the body to increase cranking leverage, rigidity and torque, as found in the Calcutta D reels.

Rigid Support Drag eliminates spool movement and wobble, even at light drag settings. e result is an incredibly smooth drag even at extremely light settings.

Shielded Anti-Rust Bearings are similar to A-RB, but feature additional shields for the ultimate in protection.

Anti-Rust Bearings possess extreme durability, at least 10 times the corrosion resistance of standard stainless steel bearings.

One Piece Bail allows the line to travel unimpeded to the line roller. Its seamless design reduces friction and the chance of tangles or cuts to the bail arm.

Eliminates friction on the spool sha for increased free spool. e result is a longer cast requiring less e ort.

Variable Brake System uses weights to slow down the spool’s rotation. is provides the angler with more consistent spool speed, as well as easier line management during the cast.

Control function to suppress abnormal heat generation in the drag section to maintain stable drag performance. When drag slips, rotation speed of motor is automatically lowered.

is drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, for the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.

E.I Anti-Corrosion Surface Treatment: With E.I., a er the anodisation process is nished, a second layer of surface treatment is added. is treatment is forced into the remaining surface impurities. is gives salt no hideout and also results in an extremely smooth-to-the- touch nish. A reel with E.I. treatment has more than double the corrosion resistance of a standard anodised reel.

Fine tuning of the Baitrunner Spool functionality. Both the small drag setting and the big free spool knob now work independently of each other. Improved, more user-friendly handling is the result.

is shi ing mechanism is designed so that gear changes are quick and easy, even when ghting a sh. e low gear ratio used for high-power retrieves is selected by pushing the button on the base of the handle. Return to the high-speed ratio by sliding the release button along the handle shank.

For the ultimate nnesse, Shimano's series of magnumlite reels o er lightweight C14+, e ortless rotation and precise control.

Shimano's Coresolid reel series are powerful, rigid and water resistant with smooth, e cient rotation.

CHALLENGE THE IMPOSSIBLE

DESIGNED TO CHALLENGE THE IMPOSSIBLE, THE NEW TWIN POWER SW IS STRONGER AND MORE DURABLE THAN EVER.

The inclusion of Infinity Drive reduces handle rotation torque by a maximum of 30% when compared to the previous series. Heat Sink Drag features in the 10000 and 14000 sizes to reduce the amount of heat transferred to the drag washers and line during the fight. The X-Protect seal and labyrinth structure repels water intrusion, with the line roller and clutch assembly, the mechanism is more than ten times more durable according to Shimano internal tests.

The new striking silver and blue cosmetics have been paired up with a polished metal handle and power knob to finish the reel off superbly. Engineered to the highest standard for the world’s hardest fighting saltwater species.

UPGRADED DRAG WITH HEAT RESISTANCE

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. The ‘Insulation Sheet’, which blocks heat transfer to the spool, prevents spool temperatures from increasing by around 30 per cent.

SUPERIOR WATER RESISTANCE

X-Protect was developed for stopper bearing protection in the previous model and provided high level water resistance. The Twin Power 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.

LIGHT AND POWERFUL WINDING

With Infinity Drive, the pinion gear inner does not make contact with the main shaft, as high-sliding

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.

Drawing upon the weight saving advantages of a CI4+ body construction, the cold forged Hagane Gear and X-Ship combine to produce powerful winding performance, while 5+1 SA-RB bearings deliver supreme smoothness. To provide the highest level of saltwater resistance, X-Protect has been incorporated and is proven to guard the reels’ internals from the intrusion of salt and sand. An AR-C spool maximises casting distance, and G Free Body shifts the centre of gravity closer to the rod, whilst Parallel Body achieves perfect rod and reel alignment to avoid line slap during the cast.

THE BIG BAITRUNNER LONG CAST CI4+ ARE FITTED WITH THE LATEST SHIMANO ADVANCEMENTS.

Featuring a long cast AR-C spool desigfn and Aero Wrap ii, this combination ensures maximum casting performance from the shoreline. X-Ship ensures the smooth function of the internals and Hagane Gear provides enduring performance.

THE AERLEX IS A LONG CAST BIG PIT SURF REEL, DESIGNED TO HELP SURF CASTERS ACHIEVE MAXIMUM CASTING RANGE AND HIT DISTANT TARGETS.

The XSB has an additional bearing on the main gear to improve the overall smoothness of rotation, while the handle is machined aluminium to improve its strength.

As with all the big pit long cast reels, the Aerlex XSB utilises a worm driven oscillating system (Aerowrap II). This offers a much slower and more consistent line lay, which is essential for clean line release and greater casting distance.

THE 2018 SHIMANO BEASTMASTER 10000 SURF REEL TAKES BEACH AND LAND BASED FISHING TECHNIQUES TO NEW LEVELS OF EXCELLENCE.

New spool and oscillation technologies means casting distances and accuracy are dramatically improved with this release and overall weight reduction makes all day casting an enjoyable experience..

COMPACT LEVER DRAG OVERHEADS WITH DUAL GEARS AND CASTABILITY – THE SPEEDMASTER LD ARE MULTI-PURPOSE REELS THAT WILL SLOT RIGHT INTO A NUMBER OF OFFSHORE FISHING SCENARIOS.

With gear strength comparable to the trusted Talica series, the Speedmaster LDII are 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.

THE FORCEMASTER 9000A IS AN ELECTRIC REEL BUILT TO BATTLE MONSTERS OF THE DEEP WHEN MANUAL WINDING IS NOT AN OPTION.

Designed for deep dropping in New Zealand conditions, the new Forcemaster 9000A incorporates the Shimano Heat Free system which allows for the reels internals to always remain cool during the fight, even when you need to apply the reels maximum drag pressure of 25KG. This means there is no time wasted in between drops as the reel will continue to perform at the optimum levels of output during the large pressures and time spent working.

An extremely strong Hagane aluminium Body provides the reel with a rigid frame that counters the force applied to it when winching a fish in. Bringing your rig back from the depths is super-efficient with the reel being able to retrieve over 140m of line per minute (dependant on pressures), this gives you the ability to reset your baits back into the strike zone with ease. The Forcemaster 9000 is a highly dependable 12-volt electric fishing machine with plenty of cranking power and line capacity that will help you explore unchartered waters.

THE PLAYS HAS ALL THE FEATURES OF SHIMANO’S ELECTRIC POWER ASSISTED REELS, BUT IN A COMPACT OVERHEAD SIZE FOR EASE OF OPERATION.

The Plays 4000 offers both a standard vertical retrieve using the power dial, or automatic jigging mode, making it suited to fishing baits and jigs. Anglers are able to accurately track the positioning of their bait or lure in the water column, relative to the target species on the sounder.

PROVIDES GREATER STRENGTH AND FLEXIBILITY ON A MICROSCOPIC SCALE.

Spiral Core X is built into the core of the rod during the manufacturing process by using nanoalloy technology which provides greater strength and flexibility on a microscopic scale. The high quality carbon tape is glued into the rod core with a high-strength resin which results in increased strength in all directions.

Compared to rods without Spiral Core X, the blank is 2.5 times stronger and the strength, when bent, is up to 1.4 times stronger than the same rod blank, so when you’re casting, working lures and fighting fish, you can do it all with confidence that your rod can handle all the twists and turns of a big fight.

REMOVES TWIST AND INCREASES ROD PERFORMANCE FROM INSIDE. IT INCREASES ROD PERFORMANCE BY OVERCOMING BLANK TWIST AND TORSIONS.

Spiral X rods are designed to have better twisting, crushing and flexing resistance compared to traditional carbon sheet blanks. Featuring a unique method which employs carbon tape instead of carbon sheets, this allows Shimano engineers to develop fishing rod blanks that are built lighter and stronger and specifically tuned for various applications.

HI-POWER X DELIVERS ACCURACY IN ROD ACTION THROUGH STRENGTH. IT PROVIDES AN IDEALLY ACCURATE ROD CURVE.

Hi-Power X prevents rods from twisting when casting and fighting by tightening up Spiral X construction, or traditional rod construction with spiralled X-Shape Infinity carbon tape.

Hi Power X enables a quickness and sharpness in rod action, producing the best blank performance.

HOLLOW BUTT STRUCTURE.

The 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.

The new Xseat makes maximum use of the rods performance. Entering the angler’s intention and feeling the answer from the fish grip is an important terminal for that. Shimano pursues the “grip ease” required in each scene, and forms a novel idea.

X Guide Aero Titanium is a lightweight titanium hollow frame equipped with Shimano original special surface finish, lightweight thin metal ring with high strength and high wear resistance.

Screw lock joint technology achieves increased joint strength and ease of detachment by special machining methods. When twisting the rod sections as it is twisted like a screw, the fixing force increases and the sections are more securely locked on the joint section. When unscrewing, the sections can be easily unlocked by twisting in the opposite direction.

Shimano engineered reel seats are specialised for different types of rods. Made from technical material, C14+ rod seats are ultra light.

A carbon solid tip that has been given unprecedented strength by reviewing the material composition and manufacturing method. It features high sensitivity with tension compared to Taftec.

A solid tip that achieves supple and delicate bending while maintaining strength without reducing the diameter of the tip.

The special design adds the suppleness of a solid to the lightweight and highly sensitive tubular tip. It also features a clean bend without stagnation.

A high response solid blank.

The X5 blanks rods utilise a reduced diameter blank, but have higher torsional twist resistance and greater resistance to overloading.

Nano pitch technology is a rod wrapping tech that tightens the blank mor evenly which increases the circularity in turn increasing strength to the rod.

Carbon graphite blank technology is a strong yet cost effective way to develop rigidity through a rods blank

Shimano High Pressure Carbon is a process which creates stronger, more responsive blanks. Pressure is applied to the blank surface during curing (heating), which evenly distributes the resin through the carbon fibre matrix. The result is a much stronger, more consistent performance and improved response.

T45 involves a three step process by which a graphite tape linear rolled at 45 degrees. The graphite tape reduces the weight greatly, as it is not a complete sheet of graphite. It is then reinforced by two opposing angled, premium quality graphite sheets to create a light, extremely sensitive yet strong blank.

Hardwearing glass blank for superior durability and performance.

Using a complex rod blank manufacturing technique, a solid fibreglass tip section is woven into a tubular blank during the early stages of manufacture, producing a strong blank with a solid tip that is as tough as they come!

Light, flexible, fibreglass blanks.

Utilising high quality graphite sheets rolled on custom designed mandrels, a sensitive yet extremely lightweight performance fishing blank is created.

High modulus graphite construction.

To obtain a super flexible rod action for bait fishing, a soft, solid fibreglass tip section is inserted into a specially designed graphite blank, creating a lightweight, powerful rod that also allows a timidly biting fish to hook itself without feeling the stiff part of the blank action.

Featuring Shimano’s

Hi-Power

with Shimano’s X-guide

and Fuji titanium guide train, the Sephia XR will easily out cast any other rod. Mean-while the CI4 reel seat and Carbon monocoque butt make the Sephia XR the most sensitive rod on the market transmitting even the most timid takes directly to the angler. When paired with the new Sephia XR C3000SHG reel (page 25) and Sephia 8 braid (page 107) you get maximum casting distance, ultimate sensitivity and an ultra-light combo which will catch you more calamari all day and night.

SLOW JIGGING HAS NOW BECOME ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR FORMS OF FISHING IN OUR MARKET WITH THIS HAS COME THE DEVELOPMENT OF SPECIALIST, TECHNICAL RODS TO IMPROVE YOUR SUCCESS AND OVERALL FISHING EXPERIANCE.

The Ocea Jigger Motive rods have been developed with sensitivity, control and fish fighting abilities at the forefront of the designers thinking. The concept of slow jigging, is to have an elastic rod that can control the jig in the water, whilst maintaining sensitivity, so that the angler can feel any bites when the jig is being worked. Shimano have utilised their own specialist technology in building the Ocea Jigger Infinity Motive rods, including Hi-Power X, Spiral X Core and Nano Pitch to create one of their lightest, most sensitive and balanced slow jigging rods to date. Perfect for working slow pitch and slow jigs.

The Spiral X construction results in reduced torsion and ovalisation while the Hi-Power X construction results in reduced blank twist and greater rod strength. Overall this creates a very strong, stiff and lightweight rod blank with incredible casting performance (both distance and accuracy). The Surf Leader Ultra is available in 425 cm length.

LIFESTYLE

The patented flashboost system uses a reflective mirror that creates a continuous flash within the body through kinetic energy. Reflected light creating light burst (flashboost) effect through lure body.

SCALE BOOST mimics the realistic patterns of baitfish scales by utilizing an industry exclusive composite-pitch hologram, increasing the amount and complexity of light reflected through the water.

Full through wire construction.

Shimano’s 3x body combines materials with a reinforced design, giving higher impact resistance and three times the strength compared to a standard design.

This unique system adopts a moving spring weight. At the moment of the cast, it slides to the back of the lure, creating centrifugal force. This accelerates the lure, and during flight it stays straighter and is more direct, resulting in on average a 20% improvement in casting distance as well as higher accuracy. Upon landing, the spring shifts the weight forward and the lure regains its balance and action.

The x ar-c system combines the ground-breaking ar-c propulsion weight transfer system with the ar-c shell body design. The ar-c body uses a foam resin material that naturally floats. Thanks to this, the lure can be manufactured with thicker walls and fewer air pockets, which makes it heavier and slimmer, improving casting distance.

Power Pro’s Enhanced Body Technology (EBT) utilises original processing. The additional line treatment/processing results in an overall improvement in line toughness, abrasion resistance, and fights line dig in comparison to Spectra line.

X Tough Cross incorporates a tight weave construction, which improves overall linear strength and knot strength. Another advantage is that it lowers elongation and heightens sensitivity, making it perfect for high-end fishing.

Spectra is recognised as the premium braided fishing line fibre. Spectra lasts twice as long in abrasion testing as comparable material.

Fibre is weaved evenly at all angles, resulting in a smoother finish, reduced diameter, and ultimately a longer cast by the angler.

A primary benefit of using polyurethane coatings is the protection it provides the surface. It creates what is essentially an impermeable barrier between the elements and the object it’s covering.

SHIMANO TIGER BAKU BAKU IS A JAPANESE DESIGNED KABURA JIG.

Their 3D holographic eyes, enhanced colour combinations and specialist silicon skirts have been developed specifically to entice fish to bite! The Baku Baku design utilises a low centre of gravity head shape that creates a resonance when moving through the water. Its shape also produces a complex flow of water behind the head, which in-turn creates a unique ‘fish attracting’ action from the silicon skirts.

SHIMANO’S OCEA NYLON CASTING LEADER IS SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED FOR SALTWATER CASTING TECHNIQUES.

Powerful fish like giant trevally, kingfish and tuna can be harsh on hooks and terminal tackle and the inbuilt stretch and abrasion resistance of this premium high molecular weight monofilament leader minimises tackle failure. OCEA Nylon Casting Leader is also preferred for specialised topwater casting techniques to maintain a solid connection and hook-set under heavy drag settings.

THE NEW SHIMANO SEPHIA FLUOROCARBON SHOCK LEADER IS DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR EGI STYLE FISHING.

Sephia Fluorocarbon leader is surfaced coated with silicon for an improved casting ability and water repellency as well as ensuring improved knot strength. Sephia Fluorocarbon leader is an esssential for any EGI fisherman's tackle box.t

A PREMIUM QUALITY BRAIDED LINE MANUFACTURED IN JAPAN, THE OCEA 8 IS UP TO 25 PER CENT STRONGER THAN THE PREVIOUS OCEA EX8 FOR THE SAME DIAMETER.

This line utilises Shimano’s exclusive Izanas X-Filament Fibres and Tough Cross braiding technology. This ensures a super tight weave and superior abrasion resistance. Shimano’s Heat Sink Coating has also been applied to reduce heat buildup from guide friction, and ensure drag pressure is evenly distributed to maintain performance.

NO COATING HEAT SINK COATING

THE NEW SHIMANO SEPHIA 8 BRAID HAS BEEN DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR USE WHEN FISHING FOR SQUID.

This braid is multi-coloured and has been developed so that it is very thin for maximum cast distance. Being very thin also means that there is less resistance on the egi lure as it sinks, which keeps you in better contact whilst fishing. The silicon outer coating also improves durability and reduces water permeation and ingress from salt.

RAPALAACCESSORIES

PULL STRENGTH, MAINTAINS SUPERIOR DURABILITY

During the VT Construction Method, fibre is weaved evenly at all angles, resulting in a smoother finish, reduced diameter, and ultimately a longer cast by the angler. Additionally, the smooth finish creates less friction through the guides, minimising casting noise, and aids in a stealthier approach. The tight weave achieves enhanced sensitivity, resulting in less than three per cent stretch (0.8 gou: breaking elongation). This
