Shimano 25 Stella SW

Product Description

CONQUER THE IMPOSSIBLE
The Stella SW which has a long track record both in Japan and overseas has been redesigned with a number of new technologies. It offers further advantages such as improved drag performance with XX Tough Drag improved castability with Infinity Loop improved gear strength and durability with Infinity Cross and prevention of line trouble with Anti-Twist Fin. In addition every detail has been improved such as the addition of a waterproof seal to the handle knob and a larger diameter drag knob. The new Stella SW has been unleashed with even more refinement to its performance to face large fish head-on in the saltwater scene.




XX TOUGH DRAG - Drag durability has been further improved
Each drag part that withstands the fierce running is made of metal and abrasion-resistant carbon washers made exclusively for Stella SW. In addition to the drag washers that were previously placed at the bottom the spool structure has been improved to allow for larger washers to be installed at the top.This evolution has improved drag durability.Thanks to the evolution of the drag structure and the synergistic effect of the heat sink drag we have succeeded in reducing the loss of drag force due to heat by approximately 30% compared to the previous model.*The 8000 model is equipped with X-Tough Drag.

Newly designed drag knob for improved operability
The Stella SW has been improved in detail with a drag knob that is 25% larger in diameter to further improve operability. This not only makes it easier to grip the knob for quick operation but also makes it easier to make fine adjustments. This provides an advantage when tightening or loosening the drag instantly when a large fish is hooked. 

The performance we aim for with Infinity Connect is "ultimate casting performance"
The new Stella SW was designed to be perfectly matched with the new Ocea Plugger Limited and Ocea 17+PE based on Shimano's Infinity Connect concept. The combination of these reels rods and gears developed as systematic products significantly improves the overall casting performance providing anglers with three benefits: improved casting feel improved casting distance and improved line strength maintenance. The acceleration of the entire tackle vector provides an additional advantage in offshore casting.
