Reel Shimano Ultegra C3000 FC

Completely new and redesigned reel that will love the cell number of fishing enthusiasts. The reel is packed with all want to break patents and inventions Shimano. It features an incredibly smooth operation, lightness, reliability and yet is very durable and can handle a maximum load.

Reel uses the patented Shimano systems :

Hagane :

The durability, smoothness and strength of the gearing (HAGANE Gear), efficient power transmission (X-SHIP) and the incredibly rigid reel body (HAGANE Body) creates the heart of the concept. The more you use it, the more you realize the value of HAGANE.

Hagane Gear - Highly durable cold-forged aluminum drive gear :

With amazing strength and durability, the HAGANE Gear is at the very heart of the reel. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives you the long-lasting smoothness and pleasure that you feel when you first use a reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear. Instead the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by special 3D design and then formed by Shimano’s cold forging technology. The result is assured resilience. It’s the fruit of Shimano’s inexhaustible pursuit for durability the strength and power of forged metal continues to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels.

Hagane Body - Metal body with extreme rigidity :

The Hagane Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body stiffness and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing. The result transforms the angler’s actions directly into cranking power. It’s efficiency through strength.

X-Ship - The Embodiment of smoothness :

The X-SHIP system gives reels increased gearing efficiency and power, eliminating twist and rotor flex. The result is powerful and silky smooth cranking by efficiently and effectively transmitting input power.

AR-C Spool :

A spool design with a V-shape spool lip ensuring that the line comes off the reel in smaller loops for further and more accurate casting. The AR-C spool will minimise the risk of backlash.

Aero Wrap II :

By improving the internal friction efficiency Shimano succeeded in bringing it?s line lay systems close to perfection. Close parallel coils in combination with 2 speed oscillation ensure smoother and further casting.

G Free Body :

G Free Body technology has been developer to shift the reel´s centre of gravity closer to the rod. This has been achieved by moving the oscillation mechanism 19 mm from the bottom of the reel to the top. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the anglers hand position, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.
