IOS FACTORY Manhattan Aqua Handle Knob #Gunmetal

The Manhattan knob, a universal design for all fish species that has become a long-seller for its strong rigidity and ultimate footing in omni-directional positon, has been further brushed up. Further weight reduction and 10 times rotational accuracy. Equipped as standard with a simple waterproof, salt-compatible dustproof packing that has made reel custom makers around the world jealous. It is also corrosion and dust resistant and has a stylish IOS FACTORY logo on the side for drinking together. AQUA, the Latin word for water, literally means "water," and the "Manhattan Aqua" has been reborn as an all-weather knob that blocks threats from the water.
Manhattan Aqua's dustproof mechanism has been submitted as a utility model.

1. Equipped with simple waterproof packing
Completely original simple waterproof packing is adopted. The improved dustproof and simple waterproof performance makes this all-weather knob unaffected by season or weather.
It is not completely waterproof.

2. Perfect Balance
Weight of 5.4g (approx. 0.5g lighter than the conventional Manhattan) is achieved. (excluding bearings and end screws). It supports experts who are concerned with delicate winding.

3. Perfect Retrieve Fit
On the contrary, by attaching a waterproof packing, the knob does not turn too much unnecessarily when touched by hand, and even with a feather touch, it has the characteristic of not turning colossally in the fingers.
For those who require remarkable rotational performance, the conventional rotational performance can be achieved by removing the waterproof packing. (However, the dustproof and waterproof performance is the same as the conventional product.)

4. Non-slip Performance
The non-slip surface finish allows for dry bare hands and gloves to be worn, as well as fast wrapping over the head and wrapping next to the head. The 1.5-finger design enables retrieving and hooking from all directions, including quick reeling from a position, which is usually difficult with flat knobs.

5. Improved Corrosion Resistance, Fully Salt-compatible
Corrosion-resistant materials are used from the main unit to the adjustment shim and bearings, not to mention the waterproof packing.
We have taken into consideration not only freshwater but also saltwater use.
*It is resistant to seawater corrosion, but it is not completely rust-free.

6. Easy Setting
Compatible with most current small and mid-sized reels from DAIWA and SHIMANO, as well as external handles from Funnel, REVIVE, RODIO CRAFT, and others. The design allows relatively easy installation by anyone.
