The MGX spinning reel, featuring a lightweight, real finesse design, has been completely redesigned with a friction-free structure.
With the previous structure, the main shaft inside the body rubbed (contacted) the inside of the pinion gear while in operation, making reeling difficult due to the friction.
On the other hand, the friction-free structure, which makes the main shaft non-contact, eliminates this friction, resulting in lighter, smoother rotation.
This has dramatically improved "reeling sensitivity," which clearly conveys the subtle changes in the line when reeling.
During a fight, light reeling allows you to add that "one more turn," and even when the fish bites or runs towards you, you can catch it without loosening the line tension.
The sinker keeper, a popular optional part for the high-end MGXtreme, is included as standard.
In addition to securing the sinker, it also functions as a hook hanger, eliminating the hassle of tangled line when traveling.
The C6 carbon rotor, made from carbon fiber-reinforced engineering plastic, and the lightweight magnesium alloy Feathermetal™ body achieve further weight reduction without sacrificing strength or durability.
The one-piece body design with an integrated body cover (side panel) optimizes the overall size and weight of the body.
The drive gear is supported by a single part, preventing shaft misalignment and contributing to improved gear feel.
10 stainless steel HPCR ball bearings + 1 roller bearing. The pinion gear and line roller use rust-resistant Salt Shield™ ball bearings.
A water-repellent coating is applied to the entire bearing, dramatically reducing salt buildup that can cause abnormal rotational noise. It can withstand heavy use in saltwater.
The instant anti-reverse ON/OFF switch function has been eliminated to improve stopper reliability and prevent accidental operation.
In addition, the adoption of a new clutch improves reverse prevention performance for winter fishing.
The 2WAY DRAG™ allows for two drag settings: "Light" and "Tough" by changing the assembly order of the drag washers.
AM Gearing™ System: High-strength aluminum gears are precision-machined using a proprietary manufacturing process, achieving unprecedented smoothness and durability.
COG Gear Design: Unique computer analysis technology optimizes the gear tooth shape, delivering smoothness in any situation.
Rocket Line Management System™
1. Spool Design - Abu Garcia's proprietary Rocket spool lip releases the line more smoothly and evenly from the spool.
2. Oscillation System - The slow oscillation system optimizes the winding angle, ensuring smoother, more even reeling of the line onto the spool.
3. Bail - The unique bail opening angle controls the line as it leaves the spool lip, creating an optimal line loop and allowing it to pass smoothly through the rod's first stripping guide.
Aluminum Uniflow Bail: High-strength aluminum alloy is used to reduce weight. A smoother bail joint dramatically reduces line tangles and other issues.
The unique carbon matrix drag washer allows for higher drag force while maintaining smooth performance over a wide range.
Duracarbon™ Handle: Crafted from a highly elastic carbon material, the handle provides high strength, lightweight construction, and improved sensitivity.
Includes a spool replacement kit: Compatible with Abu Works spool kits and Revo series spools released after 2016.
