Shimano Nasci FC C3000 (NASC3000FC)

The NASCI front drag reel range embraces modern design and visual trends, with Shimano´s unrivalled engineering excellence. The understated, almost monochromic grey body features subtle chrome accents and fits perfectly alongside Shimano´s latest reels, making the range a compelling proposition for anglers looking for a mid-priced reel. In use, the... moreunmistakable strength and durability of Hagane gear and the reassuring torque and solidity of X-SHIP is immediately apparent, as the reel rotates with a whisper quiet hum and a directness that belies its true cost of under € 100,00. NASCI features a wide range of impressive, proven technology including HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP, Coreprotect on line roller (IPX4), G Free Body (made from lightweight CI4+), AR-C Spool and S A-RB bearings, but it´s real appeal is the silhouette and looks that are as attractive as almost anything else in the market place, irrespective of cost.Specifications:- Body Material: Xt-7- Bearings: 5+1- Family Type: Spinning- Spool Material: Cold Forged Alu- Waterproof Drag: Yes- Handle: Screw In Machined Alu Single Handle- Weight (G): 240- Gear Ratio: 5.0:1 - Bearings: 5+1 - Max Drag (Kg): 9- Line Capacity (Mm/M): 0.18-290/0.20-240/0.25-160Technology:Hagane Gear:- The HAGANE Drive Gear is produced by Shimano´s coldforging technology, without the need for additional machining. This delivers a longlasting smoothness, strength, lightness and power at the very heart of the reel. Traditional diecast, machined gears are less durable under heavy loads.Xship:- XShip is a combination of features that work together to create much greater efficiency. By positioning the pinion gear close to the centre line of the large diameter drive gear, more power is transferred from the handle to the rotor. The pinion gear is also supported by two Shimano ARB roller bearings. This creates more stability.Coreprotect:- Coreprotect prevents water entering the body, from under the rotor at the front of the body, and also into the Roller Bearing unit.G Free Body:- G Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel´s centre of gravity closer to the rod. This has been achieved by moving the worm shaft oscillation mechanism 19mm from the bottom of the reel to the top. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the anglers hand position, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.Arc Spool:- Shimano ARC Spool is a patented spool design with an angled spool lip. This design enables the line to leave the spool with less friction and in smaller coils resulting in longer more accurate casts. ARC spools are proven to reduce backlash and wind knots when using braid.
