Shimano Stella SW D Spinning Reel

Shimano Stella SW D Spinning Reel

Redefine innovation to conquer the impossible. The iconic heritage of the Stella family embodies this mindset with the debut of the new Stella SW D, designed to elevate angler performance through industry-leading Shimano reel technologies. Built upon the Shimano legacy of cold-forged HAGANE gears for added strength, new InfinityXross technology extends the gear tooth horizontally to distribute load across the gear tooth more evenly for unequaled gear durability. The debut of Shimano's new XX Tough Drag technology modifies the reel's drag construction by moving the upper washer to the top of the spool and significantly increasing the drag washer size. The result: Greater drag durability and less heat accumulation for added performance. Combining new spool and rotor innovations with proven Shimano technology increases casting and reeling performance with improved line management. Shimano's new InfinityLoop technology leverages asymmetrical worm shaft grooves that change oscillation speeds depending on the direction of the spool movement to produce a more even line lay and beautiful winding shape. To the angler, InfinityLoops technology increases casting distance and eliminates unwanted drag spikes for a heightened fishing-fighting performance. The combination of the new Anti-Twist Fin — an elastic polymer on the underside of the roller — with a redesigned drag knob and spool lip enhances reeling performance with superior line management. Conquer the Impossible: The new Stella SW has arrived.
