(PRICE w/o GST) - DUEL H.D. Carbon® EX 50M
The DUEL H.D. Carbon® EX is a premium 100% fluorocarbon line designed for anglers who prioritize extreme toughness and reliability. It represents a "next-generation" evolution in fluorocarbon technology, engineered to handle sudden, high-stress impacts and harsh underwater environments.
Key Features and Performance Enhancements
-
Extreme Impact Resistance (Toughness): Using a new manufacturing process, DUEL has increased shock resistance by approximately 4.7 times compared to conventional lines. This makes it highly resilient against the "sudden snap" of a heavy strike.
-
Enhanced Knot Strength: The line offers roughly 10% more "tenacity" (a combination of knot strength and elongation), ensuring that your knots hold firm even when the line is stretched to its limit.
-
Superior Abrasion Resistance: It is designed to withstand friction against rocks, reefs, and structures, with an average 10% increase in abrasion resistance over previous versions.
-
"Just Stopper" (Patented) Spool Design: The 50m spool features a unique soft resin holder that:
-
Prevents the line from unraveling.
-
Allows you to pull out only the length you need and stops the line instantly.
-
Protects the line from salt damage and UV rays.
-
-
High Visibility/Invisibility: While clear to the angler, the 100% fluorocarbon material has a refractive index close to water, making it nearly invisible to fish.
Product Usage
This line is primarily used as leader material (Harisu/Shock Leader) for various fishing styles, including:
-
Saltwater: Rock fishing, shore jigging, and boat fishing for sea bass or larger blue runners.
-
Lure Fishing: Eging (squid), Ajing (light game), and Bass fishing.
Summary of Technical Evolution
Compared to standard fluorocarbon products, the "EX" series focuses on three main pillars:
-
Shock Resistance: Significantly higher (4.7x).
-
Knot Reliability: Improved tenacity.
-
Durability: Better wear resistance against external damage.
