Product Description
The Saltiga name has become synonymous with the ultimate in reel engineering, delivering previously unreachable levels of performance and durability in a reel. Originally designed to maximize the output from modern braid; an approach today which lets you pack a tremendous mount of fighting power onto a relatively small reel. However, it also puts an incredible strain on gear trains and drags that were previously designed for monofil. That’s why Daiwa designed Saltiga from the start with beefed up components held in perfect alignment by a super-rigid frame to reduce wear and efficiently transfer winding power. The frame and side plates are cut by some of the world’s most advanced machining equipment from solid, aircraft-grade aluminium bar stock. For reliability, the anti-reverse is a dual system, combining an Infinite Anti-Reverse bearing with a heavy gauge pawl mechanism. The reels action is assisted by seven bearings and to top it all off, a massive, ease-impregnated
graphite drag provides a full range of super-smooth control to prevent break offs while taking full advantage of the braided line’s strength. The Saltiga line up starts with the compact ST20. Ideal for shallow water wrecks, light line drifting for bass and the fast and furious world of pollacking, it can hold 400yds of 30lb braid. On the top side the SA50 quite simply delivers maximum guts and enormous braid capacity carrying 840yds of 40lb braid. Deep water, very big fish; whatever swims out there the SA50 will take it on
