Rod Grappler Type C Spinning

SPIRAL X
HI-POWER X

Designed to handle pelagic heavyweights, the Shimano Grappler Type C is a long range top water lure rod that maximize Shimano's leading carbon technologies. These medium fast action rods feature a soft tip for extreme distance and a sturdy backbone that provides unbelievable fighting power against the hardest fighting offshore species.
If you are a saltwater game fishing specialist you’ll be familiar with the many Shimano Grappler rod ranges, which cover all types of fishing methods. The Grappler Type C is the long range casting version, designed primarily for top water stickbaits and poppers. In keeping with the Grappler name, these rods are fighting tools without equal. Lean into a fish and you’ll feel the power increase throughout the complete rod, in an almost parabolic way, applying remarkable pulling power and enhancing your performance and enjoyment to new heights.
Grappler Type C rods are built from blanks utilizing Shimano’s exclusive Spiral-X and Hi-Power X technology that produces the most powerful, lightest, and most sensitive blanks available. Spiral X construction enhances torsional rigidity without adding extra weight, resulting in an extremely responsive action that allows for instant power transmission while casting and greatly enhances fish fighting capabilities. Hi-Power X enhances overall strength and reduces blank twisting when adopting a fighting curve. These cutting edge blanks are fitted with Fuji Alconite K-Type guides plus a Fuji SiC tip guide, for excellent line management, and an ultra strong Fuji DPS reel seat and comfortable, tapered EVA handle.

FEATURES

SPIRALX_RD
SPIRAL X

Through its exclusive lightweight structure, Shimano's patented Spiral X construction enhances catching power for anglers. Spiral X construction consists of three layers: a middle layer of vertical fibers as well as inner and outer layers, both comprised of carbon tape that tightly winds the blank diagonally in opposite directions. By using this carbon tape in place of a conventional horizontal fiber sheet, Spiral X achieves enhanced compression rigidity and increased torsional rigidity without adding extra weight. This in turn facilitates instant power transmission for precise casting and fish fighting.

HI-POWER X

Hi-Power X construction uses diagonally-wrapped carbon tape to form an array of "X" shapes on the rod blank's outermost layer. The width of the tape, its winding angle and the part of the rod being wrapped are fine-tuned according to the target fish species. This manufacturing process allows Shimano to adjust these wraps during construction for precise actions, enhanced overall strength and added twist resistance. In short, Hi-Power X construction delivers sharp and crisp rod control for the angler.
