Shimano's redesign of a low-profile baitcasting reel renowned for its smooth, powerful performance and unmatched durability, the Tranx 300 B builds on the series' "workhorse" reputation with premium technology enhancements designed to tackle both fresh and saltwater environments. Crafted with precise intention, the Tranx 300 B features Shimano's CoreSolid and HAGANE Body technologies, which integrate the B-side plate, level guard, and reel frame into a single, ultra-rigid aluminum piece. This seamless construction ensures an incredibly flex-free platform, allowing for exceptional rigidity and sensitivity that directly translates angler action into cranking power. The Tranx 300 B is equipped with Shimano’s SVS Infinity MD Tune braking system, offering easy, on-the-fly adjustments through an external dial. Whether casting heavy or light lures, this system allows anglers to fine-tune brake settings for maximum control and accuracy. Built to leverage large fish, the Tranx 300 B incorporates X-Ship technology, significantly reducing friction between the spool shaft and gear. This innovation dramatically enhances gear durability, ensuring the reel is ready for any challenge. Packed with features that elevate casting and cranking performance, the Shimano Tranx 300 B redefines baitcasting utility for the angler.

Technology:

• HAGANE: HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.
• HAGANE Body Baitcasting: The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength.
• MicroModule Gear Baitcasting: The MicroModule Gear system creates a smooth retrieve by utilizing smaller teeth to increase the number of contact points between the drive gear and pinion gear. Ultimately, this produces a more efficient gear train with less of a gear feel.
• X PROTECT: X PROTECT provides high-level water resistance to the inside bearing of drive gear shaft with waterproof construction.
• CoreSolid Body: CoreSolid Body integrates the B-Side Plate, levelwind guard and frame into a solid one-piece construction. This delivers an unprecedented feeling of rigidity and sensitivity, and is the first design of this type in a low-profile baitcast reel.
• Cross Carbon Drag: This drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.
• S A-RB: These bearings have been through the same process as our A-RB bearings, but feature shields on both sides of the bearings that reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the bearing's rotation
• 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.
