Shimano Thunnus CI4 8000
The Shimano Thunnus CI4 spinning reel combines lightweight design with impressive power, making it an excellent choice for anglers seeking both performance and versatility. Here are some key features:
-
CI4 Frame and Rotor: The Thunnus CI4 features a lightweight CI4 carbon material for the frame and rotor, reducing overall weight without compromising strength. This material is reinforced with carbon fiber, making it lighter and more rigid than conventional resin material
-
HAGANE Gear: At the heart of most Shimano reels lies the HAGANE Gear. This gear is meticulously crafted using state-of-the-art technologies, resulting in exceptional smoothness and durability. The entire gear surface is calculated in minute detail and formed through cold-forging, ensuring resilience and long-lasting performance
-
Propulsion Line Management System: The Thunnus CI4 incorporates the Propulsion spool lip, which enhances casting performance by rectifying the line and reducing line trouble. This system ensures longer, smoother casts
-
S A-RB Bearings: These bearings undergo the same process as Shimano’s A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides. The shields minimize the risk of salt or sand inhibiting bearing rotation, maintaining a smooth operation
- One-Piece Bail: The seamless One-Piece Bail design reduces friction, preventing tangles and line catching on the bail arm during retrieves
- Waterproof Drag (WP Drag): The Thunnus CI4 features a waterproof drag system, ensuring reliable performance even in wet conditions
Whether you’re fishing live bait or targeting big game, the Shimano Thunnus CI4 delivers efficiency, adjustability, and smooth stopping power.
