2. Description
• Compact and Durable: The SLX is 20% more compact than previous models like the Caenan, featuring a HAGANE Body constructed from high-rigidity metals for a solid build that eliminates flex, reduces weight, and ensures longevity.
• Smooth Operation: It includes Shimano’s Super Free system, where the central axis is supported by bearings, reducing friction and ensuring smooth casts. The Super Stopper anti-reverse system provides an infinite, reliable anti-reverse function.
• Improved Brake System: The SLX is equipped with the SVS Infinite braking system, offering four braking blocks that enable more precise and active adjustment. It also includes an external micro-adjustment knob with six levels for finer control over braking, enhancing casting performance for both precision and long-distance casts.
• S3D Spool Design: The S3D spool is designed using 3D technology, ensuring a perfect fit within the chassis and reducing vibration during casting, resulting in smoother and more controlled casts.
• Versatile Performance: Ideal for various fishing techniques, the SLX is perfect for both artificial and natural bait. It’s built for competitive anglers seeking a high-performance reel at an excellent value.
• Lightweight and Efficient: With a lightweight design (205 g), this reel is comfortable for extended use while still delivering exceptional performance in demanding conditions.
