ROD

FEATURED KEY TECHNOLOGY

X45 / X45X FULL SHIELD

Resists blank twist. Increased accuracy and sensitivity.

X45 and X45X Full Shield Technology efficiently decreases blank twist with 45 degree carbon wraps. X45X takes everything to the next level, and is 25% more efficient than standard X45 technology. With increased torsional stiffness, blanks armed with X45X resist blank twist during casting and jigging. This characteristic prevents the blank from losing stored energy during the cast, ensuring that every bit of force you put into your cast, is transferred through the blank and ultimately to your chosen lure. If you have not tried a rod with X45X Full Shield pick one up and give it a try. The elevated performance and feel will push your fishing to the next level.

AGS GUIDES

Ultra lightweight carbon guides. Adding lightness to rods.

The Air Guide System (AGS) provides anglers with an unparalleled angling experience. Weighing a mere fraction of the weight of traditional guides (40% lighter than an equivalent sized titanium guide) AGS guides feature a solid carbon fibre frame construction that minimises weight, improves casting distance and performance, and delivers faster rod speed, reduced rod vibration and angler fatigue, and greater rod sensitivity.

V-JOINT / V-JOINT ALPHA

No flat spots. True one peice feel.

Bias construction within the ferrule allows it to flex with the rod, eliminating the weak, unbending spot caused by ordinary ferrules. The result of this revolutionary technology is a multi piece blank that matches the performance of onepiece blanks in flex, power and responsiveness. Lighter and stronger than its predecessor, V-Joint Alpha features Bias construction with nanoplus technology creating lighter joins that offer a true one piece feel to multipiece rods.

NANOPLUS

Lighter, more responsive blanks.

Graphite rods featuring Nanoplus technology are lighter and more sensitive than a standard graphite rods. Through the use of nano resin control technology in the blank construction process, Nanoplus allows for increased graphite density to be achieved within a graphite rod blank. The result is a lighter, more responsive and refined blank. Nanoplus is used with a variety of carbons that Daiwa produces such as HVF (HVF Nanoplus), SVF (SVF Nanoplus) and many more to achieve a premium feel and quality that give the angler the upper hand.

MORE TECHNOLOGY

3DX

Ultimate lifting power. 3D Cross Wrap

3DX supports the lower power section of the rod by knitting carbon fibers in 3 directions to achieve a six wrap rectangular weave. Power to the lower section of the rod, increases power, eliminates blank twist and collapse, all the while reducing angler fatigue.

AIRFOAM

Ultra lightweight foam grips

A super high density foam that is as sensitive as cork, but without its short comings like wearing and discolouration. Strong, sensitive, hard-wearing and attractive, Daiwa’s AirFoam grips are the ultimate for anglers seeking a premium grip that does not compromise.

BRAIDING X

Increased durability and sensitivity.

Daiwa’s exclusive carbon technology, Braiding X is a low resin, high strength, reduced weight, high density, carbon weave that creates a blank that has maximum density, yet is super light, sensitive, and highly responsiveness.

CARBON TECHNOLOGY

STANDARD CARBON

Normal carbon sheet has higher density of resin to link each carbon cell.

SUPER SVF CARBON

Further reduced resin from SVF COMPILE-X to increase the carbon density to further increase the performance of the rod.

HVF CARBON

Reduced resin and increased carbon density to increase the strength and reduce weight.

Z SVF CARBON

Further reduced resin from Super SVF. By arranging the placement of carbon material Daiwa creates a feather light rod that is sensitive yet maintains strength.

SVF CARBON

Further reduced resin from HVF to increase the carbon density creating a thinner rod with more strength and further reduced weight.

SPECIAL Z SVF CARBON

Created by the Daiwa’s unique technology, SPECIAL Z SVF achieves the lightest weight with extreme sensitivity and strength.

SVF COMPILE-X CARBON

Further reduced resin from SVF to achieve a higher carbon density creating a thinner rod with more strength and further reduced weight.

REEL SEAT TECHNOLOGY

ZERO SEAT & AIR SENSOR are two of Daiwa’s ever growing range of carbon resin reel seats that are minimal in weight, yet high in strength and sensitivity. With a large range of styles being developed for specific techniques, increased function and comfort. Daiwa is creating the ultimate high performance reel seats.
