Rods & Reels Shimano | Shimano Saragosa Sw A

A True Glutton For Punishment, The Legacy Of The Versatile Saragosa Sw Starts A New Chapter In 2020 With Enhanced Capabilities And Features To Dominate The Saltwater Realm.

The Saragosa Sw Now Features Infinity Drive Technology And Increases The Reel’S Winding Torque Under Load Compared To Its Predecessor To Give Anglers A Distinct Advantage Over Hard Fighting Game Fish. Combined With A Battle-Tested Rigid Hagane Body That Won’T Flex Under Immense Loads And The Hagane Gear To Create Eternally Smooth Reeling, The Capabilities Of The Saragosa Sw Make It A Thoroughbred Workhorse Among Saltwater Spinning Reels.

Benefiting From An Ipx8-Rated Waterproof Body, Saragosa Sw Also Features A Waterproof Cross Carbon Drag And X-Protect For High-Level Water Resistance To Create Long-Lasting Durability Without Sacrificing Performance. No Matter Whether Anglers Are Fishing Inshore Or Offshore, Jigging For Bottom Fish Or Casting Baits At Tailing Fish, They Can Count On — Just Like They Always Have — The Saragosa Sw To Stay Smooth No Matter The Conditions And Perform When Needed Most.

Hagane Body

The Hagane Body Is A Metal Reel Body With High Rigidity. The Body Rigidity And Impact Resistance Virtually Eliminates Body Flexing On The Reel While Fighting Fish. The Result Transforms The Angler’S Actions Directly Into Cranking Power, Increasing Efficiency Through Strength.

X-Ship

X-Ship Provides Improved Gear Durability. By Supporting The Pinion Gear On Both Ends With Bearings, The Pinion Gear Maintains Precise Alignment With The Drive Gear. This Allows The Gears To Stay In The Same Position Under The Heaviest Loads. The Added Benefit Of X-Ship Technology Is That Friction Between The Spool Shaft And Gear Are Eliminated. This Further Benefits Anglers With Enhanced Casting Performance And Casting Distance Of Lighter Lures.

X-Shield

By Providing Dependable Sealing Structures And Gaskets At 12 Critical Locations Throughout The Reel Body, Shimano Is Able To Create A Water-Resistant Structure That Is Highly Reliable And Durable While Ensuring That It Can Hold Up When Used In Extreme Saltwater Conditions.

S A-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 Rotation Of The Bearing.

X-Protect

X-Protect Provides High-Level Water Resistance Without Sacrificing Light Gear And Rotor Rotation. By Combining Shimano’S Water-Repellent Coating With A Water-Channeling Labyrinth Construction, X-Protect Provides Added Durability In Tough Conditions.

Waterproof Drag

With The Use Of Rubber Gaskets The Drag Is Sealed Against Intrusion Of The Elements Such As Water And Dust.

X-Tough Drag

X-Tough Drag Features Dramatically Enhanced Smoothness, Control And Toughness To Anticipate The Vigorous Speed Of Bluefin Tuna And Giant Trevally. X-Tough Drag Further Improves Heat Resistance And Durability With Construction That Incorporates Metal-Only Drag Washers And Abrasion-Resistant Carbon Washers As Well Increased Stability By Supporting The Spool From Both The Top And Bottom.

Infinity Drive

Infinity Drive Is A New Main Shaft Supporting Structure That Improves Winding Torque And Allows For Incredibly Smooth And Light Rotation. This Means Anglers Will Benefit From The Quick Line Retrieve Of A Hg Ratio Reel While Also Having The Power And Winding Torque Similar To That Of A Pg Ratio Reel.

One-Piece Bail

One-Piece Bail Allows 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.

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 Pleasure 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 Special 3D-Design And Then Formed By Shimano’S Cold-Forging Technology. The Result Is Assured Resilience. Hagane Gear Is The Fruit Of Shimano’S Inexhaustible Pursuit For Durability — The Strength And Power Of Forged Metal Continues To Represent The Fundamental Concept Of Shimano Reels.

Cross Carbon Drag

The Cross Carbon Drag Material Provides A Wider Range Of Drag Settings Compared To Traditional Drag Materials. The Cross Carbon Drag Provides The Smoothest Shimano Drag Performance Ever While Providing Anglers With Increased Durability.

Propulsion Line Management System

The Most Obvious Component Of The Propulsion Line Management System Is The New Propulsion Spool Lip Design. Through Tens Of Thousands Of Casting Tests And Computer Simulations, Shimano’S New Spool Lip Design Provides Longer Casting Distances Than A Standard Spool Lip Design While Also Preventing Backlashes And Wind Knots From Forming.
