About this item

  • The DualBalance magnetic brake applies balanced magnetic engagement to stabilize the spool during casts. It is designed to reduce backlash and improve smooth, controlled distance casting with lighter or aerodynamic lures.
  • An 8.0:1 hybrid drivetrain provides rapid pickup and responsive power under load. The 80 HRB aerospace T6 aluminum main gear is described as 10% harder and 66.7% lighter than brass; a brass pinion supports durable meshing, and the main gear shaft also uses aerospace aluminum.
  • A Nylitech frame and side cover combine strength with low weight. The 39 mm body weighs 6 oz for comfortable palming, balance and reduced hand fatigue. A short-shaft spool is intended to resist deformation and improve line flow, casting stability and accuracy.
  • Three carbon-fiber drag discs provide up to 17.6 lb of steady pressure. The 7+1 MaxiDur double-shielded stainless-steel bearings add smoothness, stability and corrosion resistance for freshwater or saltwater use.
  • KastKing's DTCC Double Tapered Control Chute guide reduces line friction and backlash. The dual-spring thumb bar is listed as tested through 100,000 rebound cycles without failure. EVA knobs provide a secure grip, and the carbon-fiber star permits precise drag adjustment.
