Product Description

Features

  • Hagane Body: The reel uses Shimano's HAGANE metal body frame which provides high rigidity and resists flexing under load - especially important when fighting fish
  • CoreProtect technology: A protective coating applied to critical areas to help repel water intrusion and improve durability in saltwater environments
  • Cross Carbon Drag: A carbonbased drag system that provides smooth drag performance and durability
  • SVS Infinity Braking / S3D Spool / S A-RB Bearings: These technologies improve casting control (especially with lighter lures), reduce spool vibration, and protect bearings from salt/sand
The Tranx is stands for strength and durability like no other in the baitcasting reel arena. Setting itself apart with its commanding level winding torque and formidable Cross Carbon Drag system, the Tranx reigns supreme. Offering versatility, it comes in standard gear ratios (5.8:1) for both left and right-handed anglers, alongside a High Gear left-hand option (7.6:1), ensuring every angler's needs are met with uncompromising authority.

Get ready to level up your game with the Tranx it's not just any reel, it's the reel for big fish! Originally designed to fight the mighty American Muskie, this reel delivers a powerful punch when you need it the most. If you've been dreaming of tackling monster fish with confidence, check out the Tranx. Yet despite its powerhouse performance, the Tranx feels surprisingly sleek and compact in your hands. The double-handled 300 standard gear size effortlessly cranks 78cm of line with each handle turn. And if speed is your game, buckle up for the HG option featuring a single power handle with a beefy knob that reels in a massive 103cm per turn! Whether you're craving power or speed, the Tranx delivers. So, when it's time to unleash the beast, relax and show the boys who's the big boss.

The Tranx isn't your average lightweight baitcasting reel. Tipping the scales at just over 300g it's built to be a powerhouse, not a featherweight. Crafted with an aluminum HAGANE Core Solid Body, it's as tough as nails, complemented by the ultra-smooth MicroModule gearing. Hook a powerful fish and you're in command from the very start. Armed with a minimum of 8kg of stopping power courtesy of Shimano's top-notch Cross Carbon Drag system, victory is assured. For precision casting, the Tranx boasts Shimano's SVS MD (MONSTER DRIVE) TUNE braking system, featuring internal brake adjustment, along with an external dial. Plus, a synchronized level wind mechanism ensures that braided lines won't dig in on the aluminum S3D spool. And for those who venture into Tranx has the leading X-Protect technology, ensuring lasting durability against the elements.

Hagane
HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.

MicroModule
The ultra-compact precision gear and the elaborate body housing realize a "silky" winding feel that has never been experienced before. SHIMANO's unique gear system that reduces the vibration level to less than half in a vibration comparison with conventional gear (our comparison), and achieves a smooth feeling without sacrificing strength by increasing the number of gear teeth that mesh with each other.

X-Ship Spinning
X-Ship provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. The added benefit of X-Ship technology is that friction between the spool shaft and gear are eliminated. This further benefits anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures.

HAGANE Body Baitcasting: The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler's action directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength.

X Protects: Provides high-level water resistance to the inside bearing of the drive gear shaft with waterproof construction.

Coresolid Body: Integrates the B-Side Plate, levelwind guard and frame into a solid one-piece construction.

Cross Carbon Drag Baitcasting: The Cross Carbon Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials. The Cross Carbon Drag provides the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability.

S3D Spool: S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing and constructing a balanced and uniform thin-wall aluminum spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.

S A-RB: S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano's A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting rotation of the bearing.

Super Free Spool: Super Free Spool eliminates friction on the spool shaft during the cast. Standard baitcasting reels are constructed in a way that when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft. This creates friction that can limit the length of a cast. But baitcasting reels with Super Free Spool are constructed so that the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing. When the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment. The result: zero friction is placed upon the spool shaft and enhances casting performance.
