With the name Saltiga angler dreams become true. This powerhouse contains everything you need to catch the fish of your dreams. Regardless if GT, amberjack or doggy in the tropics or halibut and coalfish in the Nordic Sea - with the Saltiga series you are prepared for every situation!
The Saltiga now is even better protected against saltwater and corrosion! In addition to the well-recognized MagSealed construction and the complete sealing of the main axis, also the side axis at the handle is protected by DAIWAs proprietary MagSealed ball bearings, which leads to a considerably elevated lifespan. Especially the line roller frequently has ultimate contact with salt water and dirt particles - here the MagSealed ball bearings offer the proper protection for permanent employment. The HardBodyZ reel body of aluminum cares for an optimal and distortion-proof gearing of the axis and therefore ensures a perfect power transmission during the fight with the fish. The Hyper DigiGear is milled of a special alloy material and combines an extremely long lifespan with highest precision. The Zaion Air rotor reduces the weight and cares for a perfect smooth running. The high drag power of the 15' Saltiga offers enough reserves to withstand giants!

- The biggest issue with many drag systems is that they are not smooth at the beginning of the drag. ATD or Automatic Tournament Drag is the newest introduction into Daiwa spinning reels. On one level ATD implements structural changes to the spool metal of the reel that provides greater support of the spool across the entire length of the main shaft. This additional support of the spool reduces spool twist under load, promotes more even pressure on the drag washers and ultimately reduces "pulsing" of the drag when fighting the fish.
ATD - An other milestone of reel technology! - CNC milled digitally developed power gear for highest strains. The precision of the gear teeth is tenfold elevated compared to conventional gears.
- We have the perfect metal alloy, we have a more precise processing and we have the knowledge for building precise, durable and very lightweight metal reels.
These reels have a technological advantage and they are not - compared to other synthetic reels - more expensive and in comparison to our traditional reels they have an economic price. - To prevent the penetration of water, dust particles or salt crystals between rotor and reel body, we have developed a nearly frictionless barrier based on magnetic oil, which cannot be overcome by neither water nor smallest particles. The result is a silky-smooth running.
- Zaion is an excellent material developed by DAIWA to built reel bodies and rotors. The big advantage of this material is its lightness and solidity. Zaion is a kind of "High Density" carbon strain material, which is made for highest performance and to resist maximum impact.
Due to Zaion, it is possible to construct a lightweight reel body that durably supports the gearing. The strength of Zaion corresponds to magnesium and is 20% stronger than Nylon/ABS material, usually used for reel bodies. Zaion is about 50% lighter than Aluminium. Zaion - the ultimative reel material! - Especially for our reels with oil barrier (Mag Sealed reels) mechanism we have developed a complete new Air Rotor. So the enormous strains, which affect the rotor via the line and the line roller are better distributed. This causes less pressure on the single parts of the rotor. The new rotor is 15% more light weighted than usual rotors of the same material - this reduces vibrations and enhances the rotational balance thanks to a very low centre of gravity.
- Daiwa's innovative bail design featuring a hollow tubular stainless steel bail for maximium rigidity and strength with minimum weight. Due to the smooth, protrusion-free design of the Air Bail®, even loose line common after a cast slides easily down the bail onto the line roller as the reel is turned, without snagging or hanging up.
- By the special position and guidance of the oscillation-gear wheels we improved the smoothness of the gear in comparison to usual systems of similar construction.
