Materials and Construction

Materials and Construction

At the heart of crafting a premium fly reel is the careful selection of top-tier materials for each component. Whether it's aluminum, stainless steel, carbon, or sealing elements, we never compromise. With over 20 years of reel design and engineering experience, we've honed our ability to identify and test the best materials available, ensuring the E Series meets the highest standards. Each E Series reel features a fully-sealed, ultra-smooth, and powerful drag system, meticulously calibrated for peak performance across all sizes. After rigorous testing of materials from manufacturers worldwide, we selected carbon drag disks that offer exceptional smoothness and durability. Combined with wear-resistant stationary and rotary stainless steel components, this drag system is built to endure.

Durability and Water Resistance

We’ve integrated titanium into key components, such as the handle bolt and main shaft, to provide the perfect balance of strength and lightness. The reel is equipped with a single-turn drag knob and is fully saltwater-proof. Every tolerance has been carefully refined to ensure a flawless fit and seamless functionality. Waterproofing is one of the most critical features of any fly reel, as even the slightest water intrusion can lead to failure. To prevent this, we meticulously examined every aspect of the E Series to ensure it is 100% waterproof. We’ve achieved superior water repellency by using top-tier sealing materials and enforcing precise tolerance standards. Terms like "water-resistant" and "waterproof" are often thrown around by reel manufacturers, but few products truly deliver on those claims. We’ve gone beyond industry standards by pressure-testing the E Series reels to ensure they meet our promise of complete waterproof reliability.

Precision Engineering

The E Series reels have been fine-tuned to deliver top-tier quality across all sizes. We incorporate ceramic hybrid bearings, which boast the highest temperature tolerance of any bearing—up to 800°C. These ceramic balls are rounder, lighter, harder, and smoother than steel, offering superior performance under heavy loads and high speeds. They also require minimal lubrication, making them ideal for high-speed, low-friction, and long-lasting applications.

Ceramic hybrid bearings are trusted in industries like aerospace, electric motors, performance racing, laboratory equipment, and underwater environments. Non-porous, non-magnetic, non-corrosive, and lighter than steel, they excel in the most demanding conditions.

Titanium Applications

Due to its excellent properties, we use titanium in several key components of the reel. Titanium is widely used across many industries such as Aerospace, Automotive, Medical, and Industrial for several reasons, but in short Titanium’s strength, lightweight nature, and corrosion resistance make it a perfect choice for certain parts in a fly reel.

Titanium is 40% lighter than stainless steel and offers a better strength-to-weight ratio, making it suitable for applications where weight and strength are crucial. With a melting point of 3027°C, titanium alloys can withstand high temperatures, making them ideal for aerospace and automotive applications. Titanium also resists corrosion from seawater, acids, and various chemicals better than stainless steel.

High-Performance Carbon Composite Brake Discs

For components like brake discs, we use advanced high-strength carbon composite materials, offering exceptional strength and resistance to cracking compared to isotropic graphite or standard composites. These brake discs are engineered to withstand extreme temperatures of up to 2000°C without any deformation, ensuring unmatched performance and durability even under the most demanding conditions.
