Description
Attributes include an anti-reverse facility, lightweight CI4+ body and rotor, and advanced HAGANE gearing for peerless performance. If you are a competition angler, or fish using a float or feeder, and want a reel to match your ability, the Aero XR is the solution. All of the reels balance perfectly with Shimano’s best Aero X5, X7 and Pro match and feeder rods, giving you an enviable combination that offer a competitive advantage. With their super smooth waterproof drags, and an additional anti-reverse facility, you can play fish directly off the drag when using stronger lines, by back-winding when using fine lines, or by using a combination of both.
The larger 5000 model has an additional reducer for use with braid when feeder fishing at long range. Power is delivered by a very direct screw in handle and a metal line clip, that is strong and line-safe, reinforces the XR’s feeder fishing pedigree.Visually, the understated ‘stealth-like’ looks of the Aero XR are stunning and combined with the advanced engineering technology can’t fail to inspire your confidence to perform at the highest level.
With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the very heart of most Shimano reels. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives anglers the long-lasting smoothness and enjoyment that is felt when anglers first use a reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear during fabrication; instead, the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by a special 3D design and then formed by Shimano's cold-forging technology. The result is assured resilience. HAGANE Gear is the result of Shimano's endless pursuit for durability — this strength and power of forged metal continue to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.
X SHIP provides improved gear performance. Large diameter drive gear, optimally positioned pinion gear and drive gear, and two points bearings supported pinion gear produce light reeling under load.
