Shimano Vanford 1000F

Features

HAGANE Gear

Hagane Gear is at the very heart of the reel and creates strength and durability. The entire cold-forging process is calculated in minute detail by special 3D design and the result is precision durability.

Ci4+

Carbon Infusion 4(Valence electrons) is a graphite body material that has been reinforced with carbon fibre. Lighter than Magnesium, yet strong enough to cope with the stresses of saltwater fishing.

MGL Rotor

The Magnumlight Rotor is 25% lighter, offering better balance and requiring 22% less inertia, making it easier to start and stop your retrieve for an overall smoother feel. By revising what was the conventional method of symmetrical rotor construction, the bail return mechanism was moved from the line roller side to the mounting cam side. This removed the need for additional counterbalance weight, further reducing overall weight and assisting in reducing inertia.

10 Year Reel Warranty

Shimano New Zealand provides a TEN YEAR WARRANTY on all Shimano fishing reels, against defect in Materials and/or faulty workmanship.
