DAIWA SALTIGA
Leading
The Way
AIRDRIVE DESIGN was created to be the pinnacle, the one
which all will follow. DAIWA has developed an innovative masterpiece allowing
anglers to be in total control. Reduced weight, smooth rotation and high
response allows the reel to spin freely. All of those combined elements come
together to create AIRDRIVE DESIGN
“TOUGH
& TECHNICAL” to pioneer a new era in SW fishing scene.
Unmatched power and toughness with total control. A high
specification reel to pioneer a new era. Designed to exhibit full strength
under pressure, catching the largest fish in the oceans with ease.
Full metal (AL) body construction with DAIWA’s original
MONOCOQUE (MQ) body concept supports a machine-cut TOUGH DIGIGEAR made from G1
Duralumin to provide unmatched crank power and extra strength to the drive
gear.
Designed to allow anglers to control fish under any
conditions, with enough power to gain an extra wind against any large predator
an angler may encounter.
Equipped with a new aluminium AIRDRIVE ROTOR to provide rotation with low inertia and extra strength, the reel is equipped with the latest advanced technology and specifications.
Rigid
one piece body
With support from a full metal MONOCOQUE (MQ) body concept,
23 SALTIGA 4000/5000/6000 has gained extra strength and retrieve power compared
to other models in similar sizes.
By introducing MONOCOQUE (MQ) construction the internal body space has been increased to allow larger drive gear to be installed. MQ construction also allows the engine plate to replace the need for screws to stabilise the drive gear. MQ concept improves support of the internal parts and adds durability and resistance to intrusion..
Torque
and power.
New gear design combined with G1 Duralumin material creates
the pinnacle of gear strength and precision. With increased strength of up to
130% to support the reel under the harshest conditions.
This gear design reduces the amount of wear, including twist and deformation to both the drive & pinion gears. This gear design combined with MQ body creates the pinnacle of saltwater spinning reels.
Performance
preserved.
MAGSEALED is a technology that implements a special liquid
material developed originally for aerospace engineering called MAGOIL. MAGOIL
is used to create a water and dust-resistant barrier in lieu of traditional
rubber seals.
This is an innovative water resistance method that maintains rotational performance. The ultimate focus of MAGSEAL was to protect the gearing inside the reel body and the bearings. Two of the key components to protect if overall performance is to be preserved.
Friction
free rotation.
MAGSEALED bearings have been designed to last longer than
traditionally sealed ball bearings. The balls are encapsulated in a completely
waterproof housing. The inner and outer rings are magnetised and joined by
waterproof and stable MAGSEALED oil.
This means the initial performance of the reel will be
indefinitely preserved. The longevity is beyond comparison to a waterproof
industrial bearing.
23 SALTIGA 4000/5000/6000 is equipped with MAGSEALED bearings on both sides of the drive gear.
Effortless
rotation.
AIRDRIVE ROTOR gives control back to the angler, allowing
the reel to perform exactly as intended by lowering the inertia required to
both start & stop winding rotation. By showcasing an easy winding
sensation, AIRDRIVE ROTOR allows the angler to react quickly and instantly to
bites, especially on slack line.
By reducing the weight of the rotor and re-shaping the design, the rotation of the reel has been improved. Lower inertia gives better control with reduced effort required by the angler.
Precise
line flow.
To enhance its position for power & strength, 6000 size
Saltiga is equipped with Φ3.0mm tubular AIRDRIVE BAIL. To support the reduced
weight of the rotor and maintain the sensitivity, 4000 & 5000 Saltiga is
equipped with Φ2.4mm bail. Carefully crafted for each size, a reduced wire
diameter is realised whilst maintaining the strength anglers are used to with
DAIWA’s AIR BAIL.
DAIWA has also re-engineered bail trip mechanism with aim to provide a precision open & close movement to give enhanced feeling to angler while in use.
Low
friction oscillation.
AIRDRIVE SHAFT has a non-contact structure between the
mainshaft and the pinion gear.
In addition to this, both ends of pinion gear are now
supported with bearings to transmit the crank power from the handle to the
rotor with a higher level of efficiency. By adding high quality collars to the
mainshaft, rotational noise has been reduced significantly.
AIRDRIVE SHAFT creates the feel of smooth, quiet rotation
and provides anglers with enhanced torque and power.
