A-RB Bearings
A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) are made of Stainless Steel that has been through the A-RB process. At least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard Stainless Steel ball bearings. Easy Maintenance-no shield design allows for easy flushing of debris and easy lubrication. Increased Bearing Speed-no shield design and lighter viscosity lubrication reduce friction and allow the bearing to spin faster and longer.
Dyna-Balance
This feature eliminates wobble during the retrieve by counter balancing the rotor to enhance sensitivity and smoothness. By using computer balancing, an approach similar to car tire balancing, we are able to redistribute the rotor weight to create smooth rotation and eliminate vibrations caused by the reel.
Power Roller II
This is an oversized line roller that reduces twist from casting and retrieving and is enhanced with a tapered area on the support to helpline get onto the roller quicker.
P-3
Power. Precision. Performance. Reels from our P3 lineup are all built using these targets. Power can be found in our ultra-smooth, efficient drivetrains. Precision comes from tight tolerances and excellent line lay. Performance is the end result of all of the features packed into the P3 reels.
Super Stopper II
Super Stopper II anti-reverse uses a one-way bearing that eliminates backplay.This provides the angler with instant hooksetting power. In some reels, the Super Stopper II can be turned off toallow backreeling for special techniques and situations.
Fluidrive II
Building upon the successes of Fluidrive, which provides extremely tight tolerances and control in the cutting process, Fluidrive II polishes the gear surface to maximize tooth contact. This increases the efficiency of the retrieve for more power with less effort.
Slow Oscillation
This oscillation system is more advanced than Aerowrap, which uses a criss-cross line lay to reduce friction. Instead, slow oscillation uses a tightly packed parallel pattern to reduce the chance of the upper layer of line grabbing the lower layer, creating unwanted friction. The result is an evenly shaped linelay, with excellent castability and control.
Floating Shaft
With this feature, using a bearing or bushing, friction is reduced between the pinion gear and spool shaft for increased smoothness and durability.
