SHIMANO Talica II A
Shimano's redesign of the flagship Talica A sets the industry benchmark again for 2-speed lever drag reels with ultra-smooth reeling and powerful drag performance. The addition of Shimano's innovative Infinity Drive technology leverages a new drag design to increase drag force while reducing side-load pressure to produce up to 40% lighter rotation during tough battles and high-drag situations. The silky-smooth Cross Carbon Drag now has a maximum drag pressure of up to 50 pounds, and combined with a new low-gear ratio and a redesigned handle configuration within some models, Talica A produces unparalleled winding power. The new generation of Talica A now features X-Protect technology to boast high-level water resistance in vital areas to improve durability without sacrificing a light gear feel. An included Light-Line Drag Cam provides added versatility with a more gradual drag curve for anglers fishing lighter line systems. PUSH THE LIMITS: Shimano's all-new Talica A is the pinnacle of performance anglers need to battle the toughest fish in the harshest conditions.
Features:
HAGANE
The 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 Body Baitcasting
The HAGANE 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.
Infinity Drive | Spinning Reels
The Infinity Drive structure is an advanced structure that creates exceptionally light winding. The main shaft, which had previously been supported by the pinion gear, is now supported by a new and unique low-friction bushing that significantly decreases frictional resistance. In addition, the main shaft has undergone a proprietary surface treatment and special processing to drastically reduce rotational torque, constructing a reel that can actively wind even under heavy loads.
X Protect
For medium and small general-purpose spinning reels, which require lighter spinning, we focused on a a non-contract 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 the line roller section.
S-Compact Body
S-Compact Body allows for all-day comfort and improved fishability by making the palming side plate up to 25% smaller than the A-Side plate.
Cross Carbon Drag Baitcasting
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.
S A-RB Baitcasting
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.
