Shimano Reel Fliegen
Shimano Reel Fliegen

Reel Fliegen

The eye-catching Fliegen is a premium long distance reel suitable for surf and carp fishing with braid, and a favourite of tournament casters around the world. Packed with the latest long range technology, this stunning reel has captivating style to turn heads wherever it is used.
If you’re searching for a Big Pit or surf reel that offers outstanding lightness, strength, accuracy, durability and comfort, that will truly enhance your angling experience, the Fliegen SD is for you. Equipped with a range of Shimano’s latest technologies; this reel is light, strong, accurate and oozes quality. Fliegen is the German translation for ‘to fly’, which perfectly sums up its minimal friction casting performance. And whilst the Fliegen SD certainly looks the business, it is the performance that really sets it apart. When it comes to style, quality, performance and features, reels don’t come much better than the Fliegen SD.
The Fliegen is Shimano’s lightest long range reel weighing just 490g. The combination of lightweight HAGANE Body, Ci4+ Rotor, Parallel Body, and AR-C spool delivers amazing casting performance. However, this reel is no lightweight when it comes to strength. HAGANE Gear and X-SHIP combine to provide smooth, powerful winding to match any other Big Pit/Surfcasting reel. And X-Protect technology protects the internal gears and engineering from water intrusion, without impairing the lightness of rotation. The Fliegen SD also features Shimano’s High Speed Drag which can be changed from free spool to lockdown with just a small turn of the drag knob.

HAGANE

HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.


HAGANEGEAR_RL_SP
HAGANE GEAR

The HAGANE Drive Gear is produced by Shimano’s coldforging technology, without the need for additional machining. This delivers a longlasting smoothness, strength, lightness and power at the very heart of the reel. Traditional diecast, machined gears are less durable under heavy loads.


XSHIP_RL_SP
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 increased support allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. X-Ship technology also eliminates the friction between the spool shaft and gear to further benefit anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures.


HAGANEBODY_RL_SP
HAGANE BODY

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 a fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power.


XPROTECT_RL_SP
X PROTECT

For medium and small general-purpose spinning reels, which require lighter spinning, we focused on a non-contact structure that does not compromise the lightness of the spinning. In addition to conventional water-repellent treatment, a labyrinth structure that suppresses water penetration is combined to achieve high water-resistant performance despite the non-contact nature of the structure. It is used in the stopper bearing section and line roller section.


GFREEBODY_RL_SP
G FREE BODY

G FREE BODY technology has been developed to shift the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod. By moving the center of gravity closer to the angler’s hand, the G FREE BODY helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.


PARELLELBODY_RL_SP
PARELLEL BODY

PARELLEL BODY is designed to improve dynamic line flow from the reel. On many reels the spool is aligned slightly upwards towards the rod blank, but reels with PARELLEL BODY have the spool located parallel to the blank. The result: less line slapping on the blank as it travels towards the first guide during the cast, ultimately increasing performance.


CI4+_RL_SP
CI4+

CI4 is a resin material reinforced with carbon fiber that is lighter and has a higher strength than conventional resin material. CI4+ is an advanced version of the original CI4 material.The rigidity and durability have been greatly improved from original CI4 material while maintaining the lightness of the material, making it possible to reduce the size and weight of the reel.


HI-SPEEDDRAG_RL_SP
HI-SPEED DRAG

HI-SPEED DRAG is the fastest drag function ever featured on a Shimano reel: A minimal turn on the drag knob will transition the drag settings from free-spool mode to fight mode.


SA-RB_RL_SP
SA-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 the rotation of the bearing.


ONE-PIECEBAIL_RL_SP
ONE-PIECE BAIL

ONE-PIECE BAILallows 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.
