DAIWA 18 Pro Cargo SS 4500 Ento

Pioneering a new sensation of cage fishing with light tackle. A lightweight and compact machine dedicated to cage fishing. The popular short-stroke cage long-distance casting reel has been renewed with a new thread drop prevention mechanism. Equipped with a power T knob, it allows for powerful winding even when dealing with red sea bream and small blue fish. Furthermore, equipped with "ATD", it is safe to deal with large fish.

MAGSEALED
Daiwa's unique waterproof structure shuts out seawater and dust by creating a wall of magnetic oil in the gap between the body and rotor. Since the body and rotor are non-contact, it maintains the initial rotation performance for a long time while maintaining light and smooth rotation. Most of the causes of abnormal rotation noise are salt jams and the intrusion of foreign objects. Except for cases where it is accidentally dropped into water, the rate of abnormal rotation noise in mag-sealed reels is significantly reduced. Moreover, this ratio is appearing in the data as a larger difference as time passes. 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 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.

DS5 (rotor material)
Fiber-reinforced special plastic exclusively for reels created with Daiwa's proprietary technology.

Folding aluminum machine cut handle
High rigidity machine cut handle that provides a stable winding feel. Foldable type with excellent portability.

Cross wrap
A method of winding in a cross to prevent the line from biting into the spool winding part 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
By tapering the line roller and rolling the line, it offsets the line twist caused by the rotor rotation. It has significantly eliminated the line twist that was said to be the fate of spinning reels. It drastically reduces line trouble and realizes comfortable fishing.

Shower washable
It can be washed with running water. (After washing, 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 accidental veil reversal 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.
