Shimano Ultegra FC 1000 (ULT1000FC)

The sleeping giant rests no longer. The new Ultegra is a feature-packed powerhouse, offering premium performance for all anglers. Ruggedly designed from cover to core with a hint of elegance in design, the marriage of Shimano´s CI4+ composite body and cold-forged HAGANE Gear provides extreme durability and sensitivity with less weight. MicroModule... moreGear II and SilentDrive technologies improve gear mesh and minimize overall play in construction to provide increased reel performance. Improving upon standard protection against corrosion, Ultegra incorporates Shimano´s X-Protect technology and makes it the easy choice for anglers seeking utility in fresh, brackish and saltwater environments. For a final touch of refinement, Ultegra features a seamless one-piece bail that allows line to travel unimpeded onto the line roller, reducing friction and limiting tangles. A reel for all anglers and any situation, the new Ultegra is loaded with high-quality Shimano features for increased performance.Specifications:- Mono Line Capacity (#test/yd): 2/270, 4/160, 6/110 - Weight (oz): 6.3- Bearings: 5+1 - Gear Ratio: 5.1:1 - Retrieve Per Crank (in): 25 - Powerpro Braid (lb/yds): 10/95, 15/75, 20/65 - Max Drag (lb): 7Technology:AERO WRAP II:- This two-speed oscillation system layers the line onto the spool in a crisscross pattern that reduces line-to-line friction for longer casts. Aero Wrap reels utilize a patented worm gear design to move the spool upward quickly and downward slowly to wind the line in a precise pattern, reducing friction, and giving smoother, longer casting ability.CI4+:- CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4. This highly technical material is 2.5 times stiffer than CI4 and is used to increase weight savings.CROSS CARBON DRAG:- This drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.G-FREE BODY:- G-Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel´s center of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity closer to the anglers hand position, the G-Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.HAGANE GEAR:- With 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 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 continues to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.LONG STROKE SPOOL:- The Long Stroke Spool has longer stroke compared to conventional spool designs. This long stroke specification results in greater casting distance.MICROMODULE GEAR
