Built on the same compact, rigid and versatile platform as the popular SLX bait casting reel, with the addition of Shimano's unique DC Braking technology, SLX DC puts no compromise casting performance within every anglers reach.
Features:
- Hagane Body: a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power. It's efficiency through strength.
- S3D Spool: technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminum constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.
- Super Free Spool: was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and actually can drag on the spool shaft creating friction that can limit the length of a cast. With Super Free Spool the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing so that when the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment. The result is zero friction upon the spool shaft
- I-DC4: Intelligent Digital Control braking system with an easy to use, 4 modes can be set using the external dial for Max Distance, Braided/Mono line, Fluorocarbon line and Skipping for you to place the lure at those hard to reach places. This will allow anglers to fish a wide variety of lures, in any conditions, with minimal adjustment to the reel. I-DC4 reads various situation changes from casting to arrival of lure at target spot through the reading of the spool's rotation and makes fine adjustments to the brake accordingly
