SHIMANO - PITBULL 12 - 12 STRAND BRAID - 200 METERS - SIGHT LIME

SHIMANO - PITBULL 12 - 12 STRAND BRAID - 200 METERS - SIGHT LIME

A perfect balance between suppleness and smoothness. A PE line with low elasticity for casting lures.

Shimano Pitbull PE 12 is the newest twelve-strand braided line. In the production of the braid, the latest Japanese polyethylene (PE) IZANAS fiber was used, which replaced the well-known Dyneema. The new material, which the manufacturer calls 'Super Fiber', has increased tear and abrasion resistance and allows the production of smaller diameter braids without sacrificing strength. Thanks to the smooth surface, the braid is very quiet on the guides and passes smoothly during the cast.

Comparison of characteristics by number of stitches

Shimano's first 12-strand braided PE line using the 'Tough Cross 2' construction method!

Low elongation concept: The structure/construction method allows us to reduce elongation.

Improved operability/hooking The ``Tough Cross 2'' provides direct operability and also contributes to hooking.

Suppression of guide trouble The line is designed to have some stiffness, which makes it difficult for slack to get around the guide, helping to prevent trouble.

Casting Tune We tested a weaving method that would prevent backlash and other troubles. The feedback we got was that it was 'easy to cast.'
