About this item
- Japan-market Daiwa spinning reel, 2015 generation of the Powersurf QD line — sold in Japan as 15パワーサーフ.
- 4 sizes from 3500QD to 6000QD, 595 g (21.0 oz); gear ratio 4.1.
- Daiwa lists these technologies for this generation: MAGSEALED; AIRROTOR; QUICK DRAG; DIGIGEAR II; cross wrap; TWIST BUSTER II; AIRBAIL.
- In plain words: MAGSEALED — magnetic-oil seal that keeps water and dust out of the body. AIRROTOR — lighter, arch-shaped rotor. QUICK DRAG — drag knob that goes from free-spool to full drag in about one turn (surf-casting reels).
- Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.
