Torsa® Feature Details
- Cold Forged Aluminum Spool
These spools provide increased strength and durability over diecast aluminum or graphite spools. - A-RB® Bearings
Stainless steel ball bearings that have been through the A-RB treatment process which makes them at least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings. - Super Stopper®
Super Stopper uses a one-way, stainless steel roller bearing that eliminates backplay. This provides the angler with instant hooksetting power. - Assist Stopper®
This is a back up system to the Super Stopper that consists of the traditional pawl and ratchet. Should the Super Stopper roller bearing slip due to cold weather or over-lubrication, the Assist Stopper kicks in to provide a solid hookset the instant the roller bearing begins to slip. Most of the time the angler will not even know when this feature engages, because by quickly stopping the backwards rotation of the roller bearing, the Assist Stopper greatly reduces the chance of permanent damage to the Super Stopper, allowing it to continue to function as designed. - Ratcheting Drag Lever
Eliminates the chance of the drag lever backing off due to boat vibration, and the detents serve as a reference point as to how much the drag has been increased or reduced. - Ergonomic Power Handle
The handle grip, made of non-slip rubber, is formed to provide maximum comfort and allows the angler to apply a high amount of torque when fighting a fish. - Clicker
When engaged, the clicker increases the tension in freespool and activates a clicking alarm to alert you when a fish bites. - Metal Series
The metal construction showcased in some of our finest reels now appears throughout our line of Metal Series products. Metal frames not only keep moving parts in precise alignment, they also feature the use of the latest anodizing, plating and painting techniques for beautiful and durable finishes.
