SHIMANO 24 Fliegen SD 35 Standard

High performance created by rigidity
Improved casting distance, accuracy, and winding power required for casting fishing. The Freegen, newly equipped with Rigid Cast, Infinity Drive, and Silent Drive, works in synergy with the high rigidity HAGANE body to greatly reduce body deflection during casting and winding. With increased casting distance and accuracy, it is possible to easily and smoothly wind up even large sillagos in succession. The lineup also includes the SD, which is equipped with a high-speed drag that is compatible with multiple rods, such as for placing rods. It provides strong support for passionate casting fishing fans.

HAGANE
Shimano's design philosophy is to use metal processing technology to create products that can truly be used.
Robust enough to be used safely even in harsh conditions. A precise winding feel and a solid operability that stimulates the senses. And winding power beyond imagination. By stubbornly pursuing reels that anglers can truly use, the work has produced HAGANE gear and HAGANE body, which has become Shimano's belief. Everything is for the angler.

HAGANE Gear
The aim was to create a winding feel that will never change.
A block of metal is pressed under high pressure and finished with micron-level precision without cutting. A unique technology called precision cold forging creates a hard, tenacious gear, enabling a smooth winding feel.

X Ship
Larger diameter of drive gear, optimal placement of both pinion and drive gears, and two-point support by pinion gear bearings. These robust gear meshing maintains light and easy reeling that is resistant to load.

HAGANE Body
By using lightweight and highly rigid metals such as aluminum and magnesium, the reel's deflection, distortion, and twisting are firmly suppressed. It protects the delicate gear meshing and enables smooth reeling.

Infinity Drive
Powerful winding that always lets you take the lead.
The main shaft, which was previously supported by the pinion gear, is supported by a special low-friction bush, significantly reducing sliding resistance, and the main shaft itself is given a special surface treatment to reduce rotational torque. It has evolved into a reel that can be actively wound even under high load.

Rigid Cast
Designed with an optimal balance of rigidity and lightness. By minimizing the deflection of the reel caused by the large impact of casting, the release timing is stable. As a result, not only the casting distance but also the accuracy is improved.

Silent Drive
A sense of tranquility and unity, with every detail thoroughly considered.
The basic design of the entire body and each drive-related part have been reviewed one by one, and minute rattles, gaps, and vibrations between parts have been thoroughly eliminated down to the smallest detail. The areas subject to improvement are diverse, including the drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin, worm shaft gear, and sliding gear. A new dimension of smooth rotation performance and quiet winding comfort has been achieved.

X Protect
Shimano's ironclad waterproof structure.
For small and medium-sized general-purpose and casting spinning reels that require lighter rotation, we have focused on a non-contact structure so as not to impair the lightness of rotation. In addition to the conventional water-repellent treatment, we have combined a labyrinth structure that prevents water from entering, achieving high waterproof performance while being non-contact. It is used in the stopper bearing section, line roller section, etc.

G Free Body
The sliding functional parts that move the spool back and forth are placed on the top of the reel body, successfully moving the center of gravity of the entire reel closer to the hand. This improves the sense of unity with the rod, reduces fatigue caused by casting, and improves rod operability.

Parallel Body
When casting, to prevent the line from hitting the rod, while keeping the position of the rod and reel the same, the center line of the spool is made parallel to the rod, which allows for smooth line release and increases casting distance.

AR-C Spool
A spool with a special spool ring shape. This creates a line straightening effect, achieving both suppression of line trouble and long-distance casting performance.

CI4+
A new carbon material that is an evolution of the lightweight carbon material CI4. While maintaining its lightness, the rigidity and durability have been significantly improved, making it possible to make the reel smaller and lighter.

High Speed Drag
By using a special drag washer, drag force can be adjusted from MIN to MAX with one turn of the knob. It is also effective for fishing with a stationary rod.

S A-RB
By applying a special rust prevention treatment to the bearing itself, the durability against rust has been greatly improved. The S A-RB further seals the sides with a rust prevention material, significantly reducing salt jamming caused by salt recrystallization inside the bearing.

One-piece veil
We have succeeded in manufacturing a seamless one-piece molded veil. It is beautiful in appearance and trouble-free.
