Product Description
The SLX XT rod is an upgraded version of the very popular SLX, one of the best-selling casting reels from Shimano. Keeping the features that made the original SLX version so popular, the 'XT' version is equipped with the SVS Infinity brake adjustment system. This technology uses an external adjustment dial to optimise casting control, thus enhancing performance with lighter lures.
If you’re looking for a casting reel that combines excellent value for money with advanced technology, and works really well with light lures, the SLX XT is the reel for you. Retaining the robustness and power typical of all SLX models, the SLX XT is also equipped with the SVS Infinity system, which allows you to quickly and accurately adjust the brake control using an external dial. This helps you refine your casting precision when working with light lures that require maximum brake accuracy.
Like all SLX models, the 'XT' features a high-end HAGANE body made of lightweight aluminium: a real asset for a reel in this price range! This offers a significant performance advantage compared to reels with a composite body, as a solid and rigid frame like the HAGANE technology works more efficiently during fights. The inclusion of the SVS Infinity simplifies casting control by using an external adjustment dial to modify the spool brake, making this model very user-friendly for light lures. The 'XT' is equipped with an S3D aluminium spool, as well as a high-end ball bearing on the spool axle, adding more smoothness and accuracy to one of the most popular ranges of casting reels from Shimano.
