• Aluminum Braced Graphite Non-Handle Side Plate
• Aluminum Spool
• Rod Clamp
• Manual Clutch (excluding 500LC and 600LC which are Auto-Return)
• A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) are specially treated stainless steel ball bearings that are at least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings.
• Super Stopper is a one-way roller bearing that eliminates backplay for solid hooksets.
• Assist Stopper is a back-up anti-reverse system that reduces the stress placed on the one-way roller bearing to increase durability.
• Dartainium Drag material provides a wide range of drag settings and the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.
• Oversized Cast Control Knob comfortable and easy to use.
• Clicker increases the tension on freespool and activates a clicking alarm when a fish bites.

• Counter Balanced Handle (excluding models 700 and 800) By placing a weight on the opposite side of the handle shank from the grip, wobble during the retrieve is eliminated.
• Adjustable Handle Shank (only models 700 and 800) allows the angler to use the handle in the short position for fast retrieves, or the extended position for more cranking power.
• Optional Double Paddle Handle allows the angler to purchase, as an accesory, a double paddle handle for certain applications (Available on 500, 500LC, 600 and 600LC only).
• Non-Disengaging Levelwind System Allows the levelwind to track back and forth during the cast which reduces drastic line angles that cause unwanted friction and backlashes on wide-spool reels.
• Palmable Linecounter with Maintenance Port (only 500LC and 600LC) allows for comfortable palming of the reel, easy maintenance of the counter mechanism, and easy, one-handed resets.
• Crossbar Foward Design allows more access to the spool for better line control and provides more comfort when palming the reel.
• Metal Series Metal frames keep moving parts in precise alignment for increased efficiency and durability. |
