SHIMANO 20 Exsence BB 4000M HG

The new Exsence BB is equipped with X-Protect, the first in the BB series, and has been reborn as a model with ironclad waterproof performance. Furthermore, by installing HAGANE gear, it has the highest durability in the history of models, and has been revolutionized into a model that can be used in a variety of situations, including shore games, wading, and boats. In addition, to give you an advantage even when confronted with a big sea bass, it uses rapid fire drags that respond immediately to the angler's instantaneous decisions. Not only does it have high specs that exceed its class, but the design has also been completely redesigned to be high-grade, leading anglers aiming for a large sea bass to a new stage.

HAGANE Gear
For an even stronger gear system.
HAGANE gear has been installed in many Shimano spinning reels so far. The new Exsence BB is equipped with a newly designed HAGANE gear equivalent to the higher-end models. This has achieved a reel gear strength that is one size higher.

X-Protect
Smoothness and waterproofness, neither of which can be compromised.
By combining the water-repellent effect and labyrinth structure, we have achieved waterproof performance that can withstand water pressure without compromising the lightness of rotation. It is installed in the line roller section and the body (roller clutch) section. In particular, the durability of the line roller has been increased by more than five times (compared to our conventional products).

Rapid Fire Drag
The drag force changes greatly with the number of rotations of the drag knob, making it a very effective function in situations where you want to instantly adjust the drag, such as when you want to stop a fish around a structure or when it suddenly dives at your feet.

G Free Body
We have adopted a G Free body that places the worm shaft on top of the drive gear and brings the center of gravity closer to the hand. Lightweight The weight of the pail is felt even lighter at a bodily level, allowing for aggressive fishing with excellent operability.

One-piece pail
An extremely thin shape with no seams made by integrally molding stainless steel. Cold forging technology is used to create a frame that is extremely hard and scratch-resistant. The line roller is seamless, eliminating problems such as the line getting caught.

Threaded handle
Like the higher-end model, the threaded handle is fixed. This allows for direct winding without any play.
