Daiwa Spinning Reel (CastingLong Distance) 17 Windcast (2017 Model)

Manufacturer's Description ■ Mag Shield Daiwa's unique waterproof structure creates a wall of magnetic oil between the body and rotor to shut out seawater and dust. Since the body and rotor are contactless, the light and smooth rotation is maintained, preserving initial rotational performance for a long time. Many causes of rotational noise are due to salt and foreign substances entering. Except for cases where the reel accidentally falls into water, the occurrence rate of rotational noise in Mag Shield reels has significantly decreased. Moreover, this ratio shows a larger difference over time, indicating that the longer it is used, the more effective it becomes. This is proof that the dust and waterproof capabilities of the Mag Shield are at a very high level. ■ Air Rotor The Air Rotor features a revolutionary structure that optimally distributes load through its unique rim shape, achieving significant weight reduction while maintaining equivalent strength. Rotor balance is also improved, resulting in responsive rotation. ■ Air Bail The smooth bail shape, free of protrusions, allows the line to flow seamlessly to the line roller, dramatically reducing line tangling issues. Additionally, the hollow structure maintains weight while significantly increasing strength. ■ Twist Buster II By tapering the line roller and allowing the line to roll, this structure greatly reduces line twist, a common issue with spinning reels. ■ Cross Wrap By adopting a large angle spiral winding method, this technique prevents line digging into the spool and line displacement. This is particularly effective in reducing line troubles when using thin lines or PE lines, while also achieving a pleasant casting experience. ■ DigiGear II Daiwa's unique digital design technology, "DigiGear," has further evolved. By employing ultra-high precision machine cutting technology to realize the ideal tooth surface derived from digital analysis, it achieves tooth surface precision several times greater than that of forged gears. Special wrapping processing is applied to the drive gear, improving durability by optimizing the balance between the pinion gear and drive gear. ■ Infinite Stopper / Real Infinite Stopper This mechanism eliminates rotor and handle backplay through a special one-way clutch inside the body, enabling tight and high-precision retrieval.
