Versatile Brake System: Adjust On-the-Fly with an External Dial for Any Situation

The SVS centrifugal brake system offers precise casting capability thanks to its exceptional casting accuracy. This design allows anglers to hit their intended targets effortlessly, enjoying the benefits of lightweight reels that enhance performance with exciting line leaps and long-distance casts.
With the SVS∞ (INFINITY) brake system, you'll find a wide range of adjustment options. The external dial adjustment allows for quick changes when the four internal brake shoes are activated, making it adaptable to various fishing conditions. For those requiring even more precise control, the internal brake shoes can be fine-tuned for additional adjustments.

Experience Precision: A Centrifugal System that Eliminates Backlash

Shimano’s “SVS∞ (INFINITY)” brake system features a wide range of brake adjustments, allowing it to adapt to various situations through an external dial adjustment. Additionally, for more precise control, you can fine-tune the internal brake shoes. This versatility enables quick responses to changing conditions such as the characteristics of the lure, wind, rain, and other external factors.

This brake system provides a lightweight reel rise and an exhilarating line leap, allowing anglers to hit their precise target with accuracy. It's particularly beneficial for techniques that require short-distance casting, such as pitching and no-sinker fishing, enhancing overall performance on the water.

Our goal, effortless reeling.

Shimano's reel design concept aims for “eternally smooth reeling.” The result is HAGANE. Shimano honed its proprietary metal processing technologies with precision cold-forging technology and refined them over many years to develop reels that only Shimano could deliver.

The reverse tapered spool corrects the winding shape and reduces spool vibration.

Shimano’s "MGL SPOOL Ⅳ" features a reverse-tapered shape that is ultra-thin and designed for extremely low inertia.
It winds the line evenly and consistently. A well-spooled, balanced spool reduces spool vibration during casting, resulting in improved performance.

Introducing the lightweight revolution: The new concept magnet brake system.

The Finesse Tune Brake (FTB) system, which is adopted in Shimano’s bait reels, is a magnetic brake system that eliminates the brake unit from the spool, making it the lightest spool in Shimano’s bait finesse history.
