SHIMANO - OCEA 17+ PE - 17 STRAND BRAID - 100 METERS CONNECTED X 12 SPOOLS - MULTICOLOR

It uses a 16-strand twist structure that achieves a smooth surface and good thread release when casting. The 16-strand coated structure of automobile brakes was used as a reference during development. By applying this structure, which combines durability and flexibility against repeated impacts, a completely new PE line was completed.

By placing a core material in the center of the line, it is possible to prevent the line from deteriorating due to twisting or crushing, and to maintain its initial performance for longer.

The Ocea 17+ has higher wear resistance than previous models.

Normally, PE lines with a high twist count have thinner threads per strand compared to other lines with the same size. This creates a smooth and even surface, but at the same time, the thinner atoms have the disadvantage of lower abrasion resistance.

This contradiction was resolved by the adoption of the new standard thread "SF700". The filaments that make up the thread of SF700 are designed to be three times thicker than conventional threads, achieving high abrasion resistance at the thread level. In addition to adopting this new thread, Shimano's unique surface treatment has been applied to achieve even greater abrasion resistance.
