Description

The Shimano Stradic FM Spinning Reel is the latest model to Shimano's CoreSolid spinning reel lineup. The Stradic FM has transformed remarkably by integrating state-of-the-art technology derived from Shimano's finest spinning reels. The revolutionary InfinityXross technology has extended the gear tooth horizontally, ensuring an even distribution of load, leading to unparalleled durability and coherence. This exceptional reeling experience is achieved by combining Shimano's cold-forged HAGANE gearing for increased strength with the sophistication of MicroModule II. The Stradic FM now comes with InfinityDrive, which offers smooth rotation and increased power when reeling in heavy loads. Its new Duracross Drag system delivers the same smooth performance as felt but with up to ten times more durability. To ensure reliable performance throughout its lifespan, Shimano's X-Protect water-repellent coating and specially designed labyrinth construction prevent water from seeping into crucial areas without adding any significant weight. Moreover, the new Anti-Twist Fin, a flexible polymer located underneath the roller, improves line management for anglers who use monofilament or fluorocarbon line. The Stradic FM joins Shimano's extensive range of high-quality fishing reels. Core Solid BodyCore Solid Body integrates the B-Side Plate, level-wind 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.InfinityXrossAdvancements in manufacturing technology and gear tooth design improve the surface contact and meshing between the drive gear and pinion gear. This revolutionary design efficiently distributes the load placed on the gear tooth surface across a wider area to prevent damage from stress points while significantly improving overall gear durability.HAGANE GearWith amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the very heart of the reel. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives you the long-lasting smoothness and pleasure that you feel when you first use a reel over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear. Instead, the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by a special 3D design and then formed by Shimano's cold-forging technology. The result is assured resilience. It's the fruit of Shimano's inexhaustible pursuit for durability; the strength and power of forged metal continue to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.Micro Module Gear IIState-of-the-art gear tooth surface design and MicroModule Gear II are further advanced through Shimano's exclusive manufacturing technology. The surfaces of the drive gear and pinion gear have been analyzed and updated from the ground up in pursuit of perfection.Infinity DriveThe new main shaft supporting structure improves winding torque by 30% while allowing incredibly smooth and light rotation. This essentially means having the benefit of a quick line retrieve of an HG ratio reel but with the power and winding torque similar to that of a PG.DuraCrossConstructed to enhance overall durability, this revolutionary drag washer incorporates cutting-edge materials woven in a unique pattern compared to conventional drag washers. Without sacrificing a smooth drag feel, this new material is greater than 10x more durable for improved drag performance.X-PROTECTBy combining Shimano's water-repellent coating and specially designed, water-channeling labyrinth construction, X-PROTECT provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear and rotor rotation.Anti-Twist FinThe flexible polymer fin is installed near the line roller. This maintains line tension to reduce sagging and prevents the line from falling off the bottom of the spool or wrapping around the spool in an uneven manner.
