TORIUM OVERHEADS

For high speed spinning, jigging, or any fishing situation where the ability to recover line in a hurry is important, Shimano's new Torium range of overheads will certainly fit the bill.

A 6.2:1 gear ratio will really bring out the best in metal jigs and lures that require a good turn of speed to get working, while an oversize clicker mechanism means that this reel can also be used for bait fishing if need be.

The TOR 16 holds 320 metres of ten kilo, the TOR 20 420 metres of ten kilo, and the TOR 30 350 metres
of fifteen kilo, so they're no-nonsense reels built for hard work and big fish.

The multi-washer star drag makes use of Shimano's high performance Dartanium washers, which means the Toriums will comfortably handle the fastest runs from mackerel, kingfish, wahoo and tuna.

A die-cast aluminium reel frame, and aluminium side plates and spool means that the entire Torium range make superb casting reels, and thanks to their lightweight, endless hours of repetitive casting is not a problem.

Super Stopper and Assist Stopper remove any back play in the handle, while three of Shimano's patented A-RB bearings keeps everything turning smoothly.

These A-RB (anti-rust) bearings are treated with a special coating that makes them ten times more resistant to corrosion than standard stainless ball bearings.

And like all reels in the Shimano lineup, the Torium range is covered by an unprecedented ten year warranty.
