The smoothest and most efficient drivetrain in a spinning reel is now even smoother and more efficient with improved durability. Introducing the Shimano Stella FJ. The new MicroModule II provides a new ideal gear design and gear teeth surface for amazing smoothness and nearly twice the strength of Shimano's already unmatched gear durability. X-Protect makes the new Stella up to five times more resistant to the long-term damaging effects of water than the previous model, so evert turn of the handle is sure to feel as good as new - even after years of use. Plus, new SilentDrive, Long Stroke Spool, tangle-proof rotor design, and a host of other new high-end features mean Stella truly represents a benchmark in Shimano spinning reels.
- Long Stroke Spool
- The Long Stroke Spool has a longer stroke compared to conventional spool designs. This ultimately produces a smoother line lay during retrieval and translates into increased casting distance for anglers
- Aero Wrap II
- This two-speed oscillation system layers the line onto the spool in a precise crisscross pattern that reduces line-to-line friction for longer casts. Reels with Aero Wrap II technology utilize a patented worm gear design to move the spool upward quickly and downward slowly to wind the line in a precise pattern, reducing friction and giving anglers smoother and longer casting ability
- Cross Carbon Drag
- The Cross Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials. The Cross Carbon Drag provides the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability
- EI
- Shimano's proprietary EI surface treatment of the spool and body created corrosion resistance that is more than double compared to conventional surface treatments
- G-Free Body
- G-Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel's centre of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the centre of gravity closer to the angler's hand, the G-Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort
- Hagane Body
- The Hagane Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength
- Hagane Gear
- With amazing strength and durability, the Hagane Gear is at the very heart of most Shimano reels. Shimano, through the application of state-of-the-art technologies, gives anglers the long-lasting smoothness and pleasure that is felt when anglers first use a reel, over and over again. No cutting work is applied to the teeth of the drive gear during fabrication, instead the entire surface is calculated in minute detail by special 3D-design and then formed by Shimano's cold forging technology. The result is assured resilience. Hagane Gear is the fruit of Shimano's inexhaustible pursuit for durability - the strength and power of forged metal continues to represent the fundamental concept of Shimano reels
- MicroModule Gear II
- Shimano's exclusive manufacturing technology further advances MicroModule Gear II with a state-of-the-art gear-tooth surface design. The surfaces of the drive gear and pinion gear have been analyzed and updated from the ground up in Shimano's pursuit of perfection to further improve the smooth gear feeling and reducing sound
- One Piece Bail
- One-Piece Bail allows the line to travel unimpeded to the line roller. The seamless design reduces friction and decreases the chance of tangles or the line catching on the bail arm
- Propulsion Line Management System
- The most obvious component of the Propulsion Line Management System is the new Propulsion Spool Lip design. Through tens of thousands of casting tests and computer simulations, Shimano's new spool lip design provides longer casting distances than a standard spool lip design while also preventing backlashes and wind knots from forming
- Rigid Support Drag
- By strengthening the spool support of the main shaft, the play and fluctuation of the spool during drag operation are suppressed. The Rigid Support Drag allows smooth and consistent drag delivery, even under high load
- S A-RB
- S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano's A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting rotation of the bearing
- SilentDrive
- SilentDrive technology benefits from a total redesign of all functional parts focused on the drive gear, worm shaft and other parts. The goal: remove unnecessary noise and vibration. In doing so, the overall tolerances are improved to a micron level, ultimately creating an overall quieter and smoother reel operation
- Water Resistant Drag
- With the use of rubber gaskets the drag is sealed against intrusion of the elements such as water and dust
- X-Protect
- X-Protect provides high-level water resistance without sacrificing light gear and rotor rotation. By combining Shimano's water-repellant coating with a water-channeling labyrinth construction, X-Protect provides added durability in tough conditions
- X-Ship
- X-Ship provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. The added benefit of X-Ship technology is the friction between the spool shaft and gear are eliminated. This further benefits anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures
