With the increase in popularity of braided main lines, Penn were quick to realize that most fixed spool reels would not cope with the immense pressures exerted on the shaft and drag systems by non-stretch braids. To combat this, the Penn engineers incorporated a heavy duty support shaft for the spool, this also being triple supported throughout the frame, ensuring that spool alignment and balance would not be compromised under extreme loads.

A single, oversize HT100(Tm) drag washer has also been located under the spool to provide maximum drag pressure. Other features include a full metal body for strength, shielded ball-bearings, a Techno-balanced rotor, a machined and anodized spool, plus the Penn Leveline line lay system.
