Shimano Twin Power SW 8000HG

The new TWIN POWER SW challenges the impossible head on. It takes years of SHIMANO Big Game knowledge and experience, combines it with unrivalled engineering and delivers it in one amazing reel. Containing many of the features found on the Stella SW, considered by many to be the world´s most advanced big game reel, TWIN POWER SW has the strength to... morecope with unrelenting battles from large offshore game fish, whilst retaining the sophistication and finesse to maximise fishing performance and enjoyment. HAGANE Body, HAGANE Gear, X-SHIP and Silent Drive refinement combine to increase winding performance and smoothness, X-Shield and X-Protect offer unsurpassed water protection and Heat Sink Drag inspires fish-playing confidence in the most extreme situations. In the world of extreme big game fishing you need a reel that will meet your expectations, in the heat of the battle. A reel which is stronger, smoother and immensely powerful. You need the new TWIN POWER SW.Specifications:- Body Material: Aluminum (x-shield)- Bearings: 10+1- Family Type: Spinning- Extra Spool: No- Spool Material: Cold Forged Alu- Waterproof Drag: X-shield- Handle: Screw In Machined Alu Single Handle+ci4+ Round Knob- Weight (g): 655 - Gear Ratio: 5.6:1 - Max Drag (kg): 25 - Line Capacity (mm/m): 0.405-300/0.47-210/0.52-160Technology: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.HAGANE BODY:- The HAGANE Body is produced from highrigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rocksolid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.HEATSINK_DRAG:- During drag operation accumulated heat in the drag mechanism reduces drag force and in addition the increase of spool temperature can damage PE lines. The conventional X TOUGH drag realizes an overwhelming improvement in both drag performance and durability with a revolutionary structure in which the drag mechanism part is located at the lower part of the spool. Shimano's HEATSINK DRAG is the evolution of the conventional X TOUGH drag and manages the heat efficiently in two ways. Firstly, heat is released through a heat sink panel on the bottom of the spool resulting in 50%* more drag force retainment. Secondly, an insulation sheet in between the drag mechanism and the spool surface area results in a
