Daiwa Saltist Reels - STT40 - Conventional Reel

Daiwa designed its Saltist reels to handle the crushing loads that today's ultrastrong braided lines dish out. The all-metal reels feature rigid aluminum-alloy frames and side plates. Saltists retrieve more than 3 feet of line with every turn of the handle and deliver 30 percent greater winding power than similar reels. Four ball bearings and a roller bearing add efficiency to the drive-train support, and Daiwa's CRBB anticorrosion ball bearings — said to last 12 times longer in a saltwater environment than ordinary stainless bearings — support the spool. Daiwa also beefed up the drag system, combining stainless and grease-impregnated fiber washers in a wet system that delivers greater drag max than similar reels. Saltists come in three models: 30T (handling 20- to 30-pound mono and 40- to 50-pound braid), 40 (25- to 40-pound mono; 40- to 50-pound braid) and 50 (30- to 50-pound mono; 40- to 50-pound braid).
