SHIMANO SLX XT Series Casting Reel

Shimano's S3D (SHIMANO STABLE SPOOL DESIGN) technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing a balanced and uniform thin wall aluminum constructed spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures. Shimano's SF (SUPER FREE SPOOL) was designed to eliminate friction on the spool shaft during the cast. In standard baitcasting reels, when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft, creating friction that can limit the length of a cast. With SF, the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing, so when the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment, resulting in zero friction upon the spool shaft.

The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminate body flexing, transforming the angler's actions directly into cranking power. The SVS Infinity provides easy-to-manage, consistent spool control and brake force. With brake weights that use inner friction against the raceway during the cast, SVS Infinity controls spool speed for precision casting, especially when using lighter lures. The external adjustment knob provides for quick, precise adjustments for either the conditions or when you switch baits.

The SLX XT 151 SLX is a high-performance baitcast reel that incorporates Shimano's innovative technologies. The S3D technology ensures a smooth and vibration-free spool operation, while the SF design eliminates friction on the spool shaft during the cast, allowing for longer and more accurate casts. The HAGANE Body provides exceptional rigidity and impact resistance, ensuring that the angler's power is efficiently transferred into cranking power.

The SVS Infinity spool control system offers precise and easy-to-manage spool speed adjustment, making it ideal for fishing with lighter lures. The external adjustment knob allows for quick and precise adjustments to accommodate changing conditions or bait selection. The SLX XT 151 SLX is a testament to Shimano's commitment to engineering excellence, offering anglers a reliable and high-performing baitcast reel that delivers exceptional performance on the water.
