The Shimano Tranx B 400 is the latest iteration in the legendary Tranx family, a powerhouse low-profile baitcasting reel built for throwing big baits, at the most hardcore fish that swim. CoreSolid and Hagane Body technologies deliver unmatched rigidity and flex-free cranking, ideal for heavy loads. SVS Infinity® Tune braking offers precise control for casting heavy baits. X-Ship boosts gear durability and casting distance, while Cross Carbon Drag ensures smooth, reliable performance. The S3D Spool tech minimizes vibration for ultra-smooth retrieves, ideal for long days on the water. Versatile across salt and freshwater applications, the redesigned Tranx B 400 is a vital tool in the pursuit of trophies.
- The Hagane body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminate body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler’s actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength
- X Protect provides high-level water resistance to the inside bearing of drive gear shaft with waterproof construction
- CoreSolid Body integrates the B-side plate, levelwind guard and frame into a solid one-piece construction. This delivers an unprecedented feeling of rigidity and sensitivity, and is the first design of this type in a low-profile baitcast reel
- SilentTune: by applying slight pressure to the bearing holding the spool, SilentTune reduces the vibration of the bearing during high-speed rotation. This improves the quietness while casting and the rise of the spool rotation becomes even smoother
- The Cross Carbon Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials and the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability
- S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing and constructing a balanced and uniform thin-wall aluminum spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures
- 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
- Super Free Spool eliminates friction on the spool shaft during the cast and enhances casting performance
