Product Description
LOCK & LOAD WITH CONFIDENCE
For many years now the Shimano Twin Power SW 14000XG C Spin Reel has set the standard of spin reels that sit sub $1000. Tried and tested in nearly every fishing condition, against every pelagic fish that calls NZ waters home & in the hands of many of the countries leading anglers. It's no secret that the Shimano Twin Power SW 14000XG C Spin Reel has quickly become one of New Zealands most trusted spin reels of the last decade. If you are looking for a premium spin reel that has the ability to tame your personal best Kingfish, Hapuka, Bass or even billfish then you need to consider the Shimano Twin Power SW 14000XG C Spin Reel. The 14000 XG model is designed to endlessly cast stickbaits at offshore reefs in the pursuit of XOS Kingfish, it may even be the most popular size of the Twin Power series. At Land & Sea we recommend pairing the Shimano Twin Power reel range with the Shimano Plugger or Shimano Game Range of Rods creating a formidable setup!
Designed to challenge the impossible, the new TwinPower SW is stronger and more durable than ever. The inclusion of Infinity Drive reduces handle rotation torque by a maximum of 30% when compared to the previous series. Heat Sink Drag features in the 10000 and 14000 sizes to reduce the amount of heat transferred to the drag washers and line during the fight. The X-Protect seal and labyrinth structure repels water intrusion, with the line roller and clutch assembly, the mechanism is ten times more durable according to interal Shimano testing. The new striking silver and blue cosmetics have been paired up with a polished metal handle and power knob to finish the reel off superbly. Engineered and made in Japan to the highest standard for the world’s hardest fighting saltwater species.
Infinity Drive
With the Infinity Drive, the pinion gear inner does not make contact with the main shaft, as high-sliding bushing supports the main shaft and sliding resistance is reduced. In addition to this, a special skidding coating on the main shaft helps to further reduce sliding resistance. Infinity Drive cuts handle rotation torque by about 30% in comparison to the conventional system and makes the reel more powerful. This enables anglers to wind more aggressively, even under heavy load.
Hagane Body
The Hagane Body chassis is made of highly rigid aluminium alloy. It eliminates flex, warp and distortion of the reel, and protects the engagement of gears inside. This allows for smoother winding.
Hagane Gear
Hagane Gear is at the very heart of the reel and creates strength and durability. The entire cold-forging process is calculated in minute detail by special 3D design and the result is precision durability.
X-Protect
By combining water repellent coating and specially designed, water channeling labyrinth construction, X-Protect provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear and rotor rotation.
X-Shield
By placing sealing gaskets in 12 critical locations throughout the rigid aluminium body, Shimano is able to create a water resistant structure that can hold up against the toughest conditions and fish that Mother Nature has to offer.
X-Ship
By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with the S-ARB bearings and integrating bigger drive gear, Shimano increased the gearing efficiency and power. This results in a fishing reel with ultra-light handle rotation; less effort and power giving a perfect rotation even under heavy loads.
One Piece Bail
The one piece bail wire has no gap for the line to snag on during normal operation. Made of stainless steel, it reduces friction and allows the line to get into the line roller quicker.
