Shimano Calcutta CT400D
The New Shimano Calcutta D is the next generation of round reels and offers many technical improvements over the classic Calcutta reels that have been an angler favorite for decades. The new Calcutta D reels will lead a new Round Era for anglers who look for quality, function, design and longevity.
Hagane Body
The Hagane Body is an all metal body with high rigidity and virtually eliminates body flex. The Hagane Body's stiffness and impact resistance allow all the angler's actions to be turned into pure cranking power.S Compact Body
Shimano's 'S Compact Body' makes the reel feel like one size smaller in your hand but with all the power and capacity of the larger reel. Plus, the unique outer star drag design, the handle is closer to the reel for even more cranking power.X-Ship
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 means the gears will stay in the same position under the heaviest loads.Super Free Spool
The Super Free Spool design utilizes ball bearings on the pinion gear as support so when the clutch bar is pressed down there is perfect alignment. So, there is no contact with the shaft and the pinion gear proving a super free spool for every cast.
Other impressive features are :
- VBS Barking System
- Super Stopper
- HEG Gearing
- S-ARB Ball Bearings
- Center Clutch Design
- Platinum Premier Service Plan
