CARBON FIBER
The Makaira drag system utilizes the complete surface
area of the carbon fiber drag washers; the system has
been engineered to make full contact with the outer
edges of our carbon washers, which maximizes efficien
cy & the ability to deliver high drag outputs. The DFD
concept applies pressure to both sides of the spool in
order to maximize use of the available surface area, en
larging the working surfaces of our drag system which
dramatically improves heat dissipation.
Makaira spinning reels are engineered to withstand the
most brutal conditions the ocean can offer. To accom
plish this, we equipped this series with 23 different oil-re
taining o-rings & gaskets. Our engineers made this reel
impervious to the elements & by making it water tight,
all the internal mechanisms are sealed & protected from
salt. The result is the best-of-the-best when it comes to
big game fishing reels.
