InfinityXross gear tooth design increases surface contact, spreads load out over a larger surface area, and enhances efficiency and durability.Working along with Hagane cold foraged gearing and MicroModule II, the gearing not only feels remarkable with every turn of the handle out of the box but continues to feel the same way for years of use to come.

IInfinity Drive technology provides unparalleled cranking power for even the toughest fights, while the Dura Cross Drag system yields ten times the felt drag life and ensures smoothness and durability. Shimano X-Protect technology further safeguards the Stradic, utilizing coatings and a unique labyrinth design to prevent water ingress, all while minimizing drag and effortlessly prolonging the reel's lifespan. The new Anti-Twist Fin adds an extra layer of protection, minimizing the space between the bail arm and roller.  This piece works to alleviate any slack line from wrapping around the spool and keep the line more elevated, ready to take a fast hookset. With additional technologies feature packing this reel for optimal performance, it is no wonder why this reel sits atop a true favorite among light tackle anglers, whether salt or fresh.
