All New Shimano 23 Stradic FM
We’re excited to announce that the Shimano Stradic will be hitting shelves at Tackle World stores around the country very soon!
The newly introduced Shimano 23 Stradic FM continues to uphold Shimano’s renowned reputation for reliability and versatility within their CoreSolid spinning reel lineup. This latest addition inherits cutting-edge reel technologies from Shimano’s flagship model the Stella, including the integration of InfinityXross technology for exceptional gear durability and improved load distribution across gear teeth. This builds upon Shimano’s legacy of cold-forged Hagane gearing, enhancing strength with the refinement of MicroModule II for an unparalleled reeling experience.
The addition of the Infinity Drive feature results in smoother rotation and increased cranking power under heavy loads, while the new Duracross Drag system delivers smooth performance with up to tenfold the durability. To ensure a lifetime of dependable performance, Shimano’s X-Protect water-repellent coating and specially designed water-channeling labyrinth construction prevents water penetration in crucial areas without adding a clunky feel.
The innovative Anti-Twist Fin, an elastic polymer situated beneath the roller, enhances line management for anglers using monofilament or fluorocarbon lines.
The Shimano 23 Stradic FM represents the most comprehensive addition to the long lineage of Stradic performance reels.
Key Features:
– InfinityXross: This technology ensures superior gear durability by optimizing gear-tooth design, distributing loads across a wider surface, preventing stress point damage, and improving overall gear durability.
– Infinity Drive: A unique structure that minimizes winding resistance by supporting the main shaft with a low-friction bushing, reducing rotational torque and allowing active winding even under heavy loads.
– DuraCross: Provides a smooth and reliable drag performance with outstanding durability, featuring a new material that’s 10 times more durable without sacrificing smoothness.
– Anti-Twist Fin: Designed to enhance line management, the flexible polymer fin near the line roller maintains line tension, reducing sagging and preventing uneven spool wrapping.
– Hagane Gears: Shimano’s commitment to strength and durability, exemplified by the Hagane Gear, lies at the core of most Shimano reels. These gears, created through advanced 3D design and cold-forging technology, provide enduring smoothness and satisfaction, making them resilient and reliable.
– MicroModule Gear II: Shimano’s exclusive manufacturing technology further advances MicroModule Gear II by redesigning the gear-tooth surfaces, improving smoothness and reducing noise.
– X-Ship Spinning: This feature enhances gear durability by supporting the pinion gear with bearings on both ends, maintaining precise alignment even under heavy loads and eliminating friction between the spool shaft and gear.
– Hagane Body Spinning: The metal reel body offers high rigidity, eliminating body flex during fish fights, translating the angler’s actions directly into cranking power for greater efficiency.
– SilentDrive: This technology focuses on reducing noise and vibration through a complete redesign of functional parts, resulting in a quieter and smoother reel operation.
– X Protect: A non-contact structure for medium and small spinning reels that maintains lightness and water resistance through a combination of water-repellent treatment and a labyrinth structure.
– G-Free Body: Shifting the reel’s center of gravity closer to the rod enhances casting comfort and reduces angler fatigue.
– Long Stroke Spool: This design improves line lay during retrieval, resulting in increased casting distance.
– S A-RB Bearings: These bearings are processed similarly to Shimano’s A-RB bearings, with shields on both sides to reduce the risk of salt or sand inhibiting rotation.
– One Piece Bail: A seamless design that allows the line to travel smoothly to the line roller, reducing friction and the risk of tangles or line catching on the bail arm.
