Abrasion resistance and operability
Significantly improved!
The popular HARDCORE X8 has evolved even further!!
X8 (8 braid) PRO model for casting only!
Firmness and stiffness coating
H.I.P. manufacturing method (heat integration process) x silicone coating
The raw thread is made of "IZANAS", an ultra-high-strength polyethylene fiber from the world-famous brand Toyobo.
The raw thread is tightly woven using micro-pitch braiding processing and then special heat treatment is applied to bond each and every strand of thread.
This not only increases the roundness, but also creates stiffness and stiffness that could not be achieved with conventional PE,
and significantly improves the abrasion resistance, which was a weak point.
Furthermore, the silicone coating increases abrasion resistance and achieves exquisite stiffness and stiffness with good operability.
Improved abrasion resistance!!
Compared to regular PE, it has about 3 times the abrasion resistance.
Dramatically reduced friction resistance!!
Dramatically reduced friction resistance reduces guide friction, resulting in increased casting distance and lighter reel winding.
Furthermore, it dramatically reduces slippage in the current and fraying of the finger hook when casting.
Improved sensitivity and greatly improved operability!!
The stretch of 100m with a load of 1kg applied is 44.4cm for "HARDCORE X4 PRO/HARDCORE X8 PRO" compared to 86.3cm for conventional PE.
Sensitivity is greatly improved with about 1/2 the elongation!
