Daiwa Cartate SW Spinning Reel – SWG18000-H

Built to dominate in blue water environments around the globe, the Daiwa Certate SW Spinning Reels are among the top contenders in the class of offshore spinners. Sharing many features with the 2020 Saltiga, the Certate SW is available in a run of sizing that covers the overwhelming majority of offshore spinning techniques. Among the features borrowed from the 20 Saltiga is Daiwa’s signature Monocoque (MQ) Body and G1 Duralumin drive gear. This single piece body removes the requirement of a traditional side plate and screw system, replacing that with an engine plate that houses the incredibly large G1 Duralumin drive gear. This oversized drive gear provides incredible transmission of power for unmatched winding performance, while the MQ body offers never-before-seen strength and rigidity for a reel that can truly tackle anything. Despite its impressive strength and power, the Certate SW also boasts an incredibly lightweight and responsive construction thanks to Daiwa’s Zaion Rotor design. Anglers can expect the smooth and effortless rotation that they have come to know from Daiwa spinning reels. Protecting this smooth and fluid operability is a Magsealed body and line roller. Combining Daiwa’s famous Magseal technology with the MQ body means the Certate SW is supremely well sealed to the elements, allowing anglers to have tremendous confidence in their reels performance and longevity. Speaking of longevity, a multi-layer carbon drag delivers ten times increased drag durability. The new washer design combined with the aluminum radiation drag knob increases heat dissipation to improve drag performance under heavy load.
