DAIWA Spinning Reel Pro Cargo SS 4500 Long Cast 2018 Model

A new sensation of cage fishing with light tackle. A lightweight and compact cage-only machine.
The popular short-stroke cage long-distance casting reel has been renewed with a new thread-drop prevention mechanism.
The power T knob allows for powerful winding even when dealing with red sea bream and small bluefish. In addition, the "ATD" makes it safe to deal with large fish.
ZAION body x 25mm stroke
The body is made of ZAION, making the entire body lighter.
In addition, the spool, which has a large impact on tackle balance, has been thoroughly lightened.
The compact surf reel unique to the 25mm stroke supports comfortable casting fishing.
Equipped with a new thread-drop prevention mechanism (further evolved from the conventional mechanism)
The short skirt spool, which is prone to line trouble, is equipped with a unique thread-drop prevention mechanism.
Prevents line from entering the main shaft. Adopts a structure that wraps the line around the spool when the line falls.
It is now possible to loosen the drag and pull it out while the bail is closed, improving trouble recovery.
※Note: If the above method does not work, remove the spool and release the line tangle.
Spool compatibility
"Spool compatibility" is also cited as an advantage of Daiwa cage reels.
When casting long distances with cage reels, main lines are frequently replaced depending on the situation, so spool compatibility is one of the essential features.
*Part of the compatibility is maintained by the new thread drop prevention mechanism.

DAIWA TECHNOLOGY
MAGSEALED
Daiwa's unique waterproof structure that shuts out seawater and dust by creating a magnetic oil wall in the gap between the body and rotor. Since the body and rotor are non-contact, the initial rotation performance is maintained for a long time while maintaining light and smooth rotation. Most of the causes of abnormal rotation noise are salt and foreign matter. Except for cases where the reel is accidentally dropped into water, the rate of abnormal rotation noise in mag-sealed reels is significantly reduced. Moreover, the more time passes, the greater the difference in this ratio is appearing in the data. This means that the longer it is used, the more effective it becomes. In other words, it is proof that the dustproof and waterproof capabilities of the mag-seal are at a very high level.
ATD [Automatic Drag System]
A new generation drag system that works smoothly while following the pull of the fish. It starts off smoother than before, so it is less likely to break the line, and it is less likely to make the fish feel uncomfortable, so it is less likely to move around unnecessarily. In addition, the unique stickiness of the operation reduces the chance of the fish running away all at once even at low drag settings, and the frequency of drag readjustment during the fight is reduced, allowing you to concentrate on the fight.
AIR ROTOR
An air rotor with a revolutionary structure that can be called a ``rotor revolution.'' The optimal rim structure distributes the load, improving rotor durability. As a result, the rotor is approximately 15% lighter with the same strength. The rotor balance is also improved, contributing to further improving the rotation feel. The material used is Daiwa's unique ``DS5 (fiber-reinforced special plastic for reels).''
ZAION
A carbon resin with high density carbon fibers woven into it, it is light, strong, and resistant to corrosion. A material that makes the impossible possible, surpassing magnesium in terms of strength to weight. It is used in the main parts such as the body and rotor, contributing to the realization of the trade-off between high rigidity and light weight.

Digigear II

Daiwa's proprietary digital design technology "Digigear" has evolved further. In order to realize the ideal tooth surface derived from digital analysis, ultra-high precision machine cutting technology is used, achieving tooth surface precision several times higher than that of forged gears. A special wrapping process is applied to the drive gear, and durability is improved by achieving the optimal balance between the pinion gear and the drive gear.

Other features and specifications

・DS5 (rotor material): A fiber-reinforced special plastic created exclusively for reels using Daiwa's proprietary technology.

・Foldable aluminum machine-cut handle: A high-rigidity machine-cut handle that provides a stable winding feel. Foldable for excellent portability.

・Cross wrap: A method of winding in a cross to prevent the line from biting into the spool winding section or the line from slipping by adopting a twill winding method with a large winding angle. The reduction in line trouble is particularly noticeable when using thin thread or PE line, and at the same time, a comfortable flight is achieved.

・Air Veil: The smooth veil shape allows the line to flow smoothly to the line roller, dramatically reducing line tangle problems. Furthermore, the hollow structure significantly increases strength without changing the weight.

・Twist Buster II: The line roller is tapered and the line is rolled to offset the line twist caused by the rotor rotation. Line twist, which was said to be the fate of spinning reels, has been greatly eliminated. Line trouble is greatly reduced, making fishing more comfortable.

・Shower washable: Can be washed with running water. (After cleaning, maintenance according to the instruction manual is required)

・Cast lock manual return: When the veil is opened during casting, the rotor rotation is locked, preventing the veil from accidentally flipping over during casting. For safety reasons, the veil is returned manually using a manual return method.

New thread drop prevention mechanism: Prevents the line from falling off the spool and getting caught between the spool and the rotor.
・Number of CRBB/Total number of BB: 0/1
