ZeeBaaS ZX Spinning Reel Information
Designed to withstand the harsh saltwater
environment for a lifetime of hard use. ZeeBaaS ZX spinning reels are a strong
advanced design, yet engineered to offer you flexibility. Yes, it's an
ultra-high-end reel that can be
owner maintained.
ZeeBaaS ZX series
spinning reels have an incredible strength to weight ratio and can handle
any type of line. Waterproof gear case and drag. Air jet cushion spool lip
design which aids in casting distance. Surf friendly by washout holes in rotor and spool. 12 stainless steel ball
bearings plus 2 clutches.
The Components are made from the
strongest materials available, aerospace grade billet aluminum, 6AL-4V
Titanium, 304/316 marine grade stainless steel. Hardened Stainless Pinion.
316 Stainless Rotor Spindle hardened to 70 Rc. Oversize Titanium (Ti) main
shaft Ti Coated to 90 Rc and mirror polished. The high efficiency spiral bevel gears are
made from hardened stainless steel, and designed using the latest
technology. Aerospace gear manufacturers were consulted to help
develop these gears to run quiet and to handle the huge stress that can be
applied to this reel. The spiral bevel gears are up to 15% more efficient
(increased power) over typical hypoid gears that other manufactures are
using.
The Drag is a completely water proof dual plate drag
system. Adjust the drag with your
thumb by wheeling the drag knob easily for tighter or looser drag settings.
The ZeeBaaS reel uses two sealed drag plates in the spool combined with
specially developed carbon fiber woven materials, resulting in super
sensitive linear performance. With its exceptionally smooth, robust
carbon fiber drag system, offering up to 40-pounds of drag, the ZX2
consistently performs under the most strenuous circumstances for even the
most demanding surfcaster.
