Lightness
Truly living up to the name of AIRITY, the newest model is officially Daiwa's lightest ever traditional spinning reel. With the introduction of AIRDRIVE DESIGN for the first time, 23 AIRITY breaks the 150g barrier to deliver never before seen levels of refinement.
Toughness
The MONOCOQUE (MQ) body remains from the previous model, crafted from a single piece of treated Magnesium, the MQ body of 23 AIRITY is incredibly light & supports a TOUGH DIGIGEAR drive system which is both forged and machined from a high-strength alloy to deliver smooth & reliable performance for years to come.
AIRITY TECHNOLOGY
AIRDRIVE DESIGN
Daiwa’s new Airdrive Design, a four pillar (Airdrive Rotor, Airdrive Bail, Airdrive Spool, and Airdrive Shaft) design concept that reduces weight, and enhances rotational smoothness and responsiveness to create a reel that is next level in both form and function.
AIRDRIVE ROTOR is the most noticeable difference in 23 AIRITY with the flowing lines and smooth design of the new rotor delivering lighter start-up inertia and fluid reeling even under heavy loads.
AIRDRIVE BAIL is a one-piece tubular hollow bail arm which has evolved from Daiwa's original AIR BAIL design. AIRDRIVE BAIL is lighter and thinner than previous models, further improving start-up inertia and to deliver truly refined reeling.
AIRDRIVE SPOOL has also been installed and still incorporates Daiwa's famous Longcast ABS spool lip, but is now lighter than before, reducing the force required from the oscilation system to move the spool up & down, which in turn results in a lower resistance when retrieving.
AIRDRIVE Shaft is hidden inside the MQ body and is double supported by special collars inside the pinion gear, this further reduces friction and minimises power loss through the drive train of the reel.
OTHER TECHNOLOGY
ATD TYPE-L
This is a new generation of drag adjustment system that constantly adjusts tension according to the pull of the drag. it maintains smoothness and trolling abilities among reels, hence allowing anglers to concentrate on the fishing, not on setting the drag.
TWIST BUSTER III
The TB3 pickup roller has been developed by Daiwa and precision tooled to guarantee optimal line lay.
ABS LONGCAST
Compared to conventional spools, the LC-ABS has been shown to increase the average flight distance by approx. 5% due to its reduced weight and modified shape.
TECHNOLOGY
MONOCOQUE BODY
A one-piece frame eliminates the use of traditional two-piece body & sideplate construction. A single piece body utilises a screw-in engine plate to house the main gear, reducing flex and twist under load creating a sealed mechanism. The elimination of the side plate has also allowed for a more compact body design. MQ technology not only makes reels stronger & better sealed, but also more compact.
FULL METAL BODY (MAGNESIUM BODY)
Reels featuring a magnesium body are significantly lighter than conventional alloy bodied reels. Daiwa’s magnesium, Air Metal, technology processes the magnesium in a unique way that results in full corrosion resistance.
TOUGH DIGIGEAR
A further evolution of its predecessor Digigear, Tough Digigear is our brand new digitally designed, machine cut gearing system that ensures ultimate gear precision, rotational smoothness, and strength.
MAGSEALED
Daiwa's unique waterproof structure shuts out the intrusion of seawater and dust by creating a magnetic oil wall and maintains a light and smooth initial rotation performance for a long period of time. The pinion gear is equipped with a MAGSEALED ball bearing that applies this technology to the ball bearing itself, which is the key to rotational performance. The waterproofness, durability, and rotation performance are further improved assuming use in salt water.
