Challenge the impossible
with the uncompromising toughness of Twin Power SW.
With power and vigor, the Twin Power SW is all about unyielding
toughness. The Twin Power SW reassures you with its highly rigid body parts for
more aggressive fishing styles, a superior water resistance internal structure
and unmatched power to reel in even the larger species underwater. The NEW Twin
Power SW now inherits the Infinity Drive and Heat Sink Drag found on the Stella
SW, giving it overwhelming power and durability for both shore and off-shore
games!
PRODUCT TECHNOLOGIE
HAGANE
HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand
continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in
toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering.
HAGANE is for all anglers.
HAGANE GEAR
With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the
very heart of most Shimano reels. Shimano, through the application of
state-of-the-art technologies, gives anglers the long-lasting smoothness and
enjoyment that is felt when anglers first use a reel, over and over again. No
cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear during fabrication;
instead, the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by a special 3D
design and then formed by Shimano's cold-forging technology. The result is
assured resilience. HAGANE Gear is the result of Shimano's endless pursuit for
durability — this strength and power of forged metal continue to represent the
fundamental concept of Shimano reels.
X SHIP
X SHIP provides improved gear performance. Large diameter drive
gear, optimally positioned pinion gear and drive gear, and two points bearings
supported pinion gear produce light reeling under load.
HAGANE BODY
The use of lightweight and rigid metals such as aluminum and
magnesium firmly suppresses deflection, distortion, and torsion of the reel.
This protects delicate gear meshing and enables smooth reeling.
INFINITYDRIVE
INFINITYDRIVE is a new main shaft supporting structure that
improves winding torque and allows for incredibly smooth and light rotation.
HEATSINK DRAG
HEATSINKDRAG is a revolutionary structure to prevent the drag
force reduction by drag heat. The ''HEATSINK panel'' located at the bottom of
the spool dissipate heat generated by drag. In addition, the
"heat-insulating sheet" has succeeded in reducing the temperature
rise in the winding area.

SILENTDRIVE
The basic design of the entire body and drive-related parts were
reviewed one by one to reduce minute rattles, gaps, and shaking between parts
down to the smallest detail. It provides smooth and quiet reel rotation.
X SHIELD
The body is water-resistant equivalent to IPX8 by
water-resistant seals on the body, side covers, and other parts of the body.
X PROTECT
For medium and small general-purpose spinning reels, which
require lighter spinning, we focused on a non-contact structure that does not
compromise the lightness of the spinning. In addition to conventional
water-repellent treatment, a labyrinth structure that suppresses water
penetration is combined to achieve high water-resistant performance despite the
non-contact nature of the structure. It is used in the stopper bearing section
and line roller section. Large reels for saltwater, a contact-type water-resistant
structure is used for large spinning reels that require higher water-resistant
performance. By physically cutting off the entry path of seawater with a
low-sliding seal member, high water-resistant performance is achieved while
suppressing rotational resistance. The stopper bearing and line roller parts
are adopted, and the stopper bearing part in particular achieves a
water-resistant rating equivalent to IPX8.
X TOUGH DRAG
Each washer is made of only metal and carbon to support the
spool from both the top and bottom. Smooth and stable drag performance has been
refined by improving heat resistance and durability.
AR-C SPOOL
The spool has a special spool ring shape. This creates a
rectifying effect on the line and realizes both suppression of line trouble and
long casting performance.
RIGID SUPPORT DRAG
By strengthening the spool support of the main shaft, the play
and fluctuation of the spool during drag operation are reduced. The RIGID SUPPORT
DRAG allows smooth and consistent drag delivery.
SA-RB
S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano’s
A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields
reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting the rotation of the bearing.
ONE-PIECE BAIL
ONE-PIECE BAILallows the line to travel unimpeded to the line
roller. The seamless design reduces friction and decreases the chance of
tangles or the line catching on the bail arm.
KAISUI OK
Models that can be used in saltwater
X-PROTECT for line
roller
The X-PROTECT structure was installed in the stopper bearing of
the previous model and greatly contributed to the realization of high
waterproof performance. In addition to the stopper bearing section, the new
TWINPOWER SW is equipped with the X-PROTECT structure in the line roller
section, further improving its waterproof performance. As with the stopper
bearing section, the sealing material physically blocks the seawater intrusion
route, evolving a structure that can withstand high water pressure. The bearing
inside the line roller is protected from the harsh environment, and the
durability of the bearing is 10 times higher* than that of the conventional
product.

comparison test
X Rigid Rotor
By using an aluminum alloy and verifying the thickness
arrangement in detail through repeated 3D analysis, we have achieved tougher
rigidity, durability, and excellent rotation balance than ever before. This
high rigidity also contributes to improved functionality of the drag and other
parts.
X-PROTECT for
stopper bearing
A contact-type triple lip structure is used in the stopper
bearing section. The waterproof performance of the body part is equivalent to
IPX8 waterproof standard due to the synergistic effect of the X SHIELD.
CI4+ handle knob
Models from No. 4000 to No. 8000 are equipped with handle knobs
made of CI4+, a lightweight carbon material with excellent rigidity and
durability. The new design also realizes a further weight reduction, and at the
same time, a special coating is applied to prevent slippage, further improving
the smoothness of the winding process. It provides an excellent feeling of use.
(Lightweight hollow oval round handle knobs are standard on the 10,000 to 14,000 models.)0 to 14,000 models.)
