Shimano TN16N Trinidad Conventional Reel

Forged Aluminum Frame. Stamped Aluminum Right Sideplate. Aluminum Left Sideplate. Aluminum Spool. Manual Clutch Lever. Rod Clamp (except TN16). A-RB (Anti-Rust Bearings) are specially treated stainless steel ball bearings that are at least 10 times more corrosion resistant than standard stainless steel ball bearings. Super Stopper is a one-way roller bearing that eliminates backplay for solid hooksets. Assist Stopper is a back-up anti-reverse system that reduces the stress placed on the one-way roller bearing to increase durability. High Efficiency Gearing (HEG) is not only the oversized gears, but also includes the setplate and sideplate, which allow for a high speed retrieve while providing unbelievable fish-moving torque. Dartainium Drag material provides a wide range of drag setting and the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever. Clicking Drag Adjustment reduces the chance of the drag backing off at light settings while providing the angler a reference point to how much drag they add or reduce by turning the star. Rubber Handle Grip is comfortable and soft to the touch. Adjustable Clicker allows the angler to adjust the amount of freespool tension while the clicker is on. Ergonomic Power Handle comfortable, non-slip grip provides maximum comfort and torque. Counter Balanced Handle (only on TN12 and TN14) by placing a weight on the opposite side of the handle shank from the grip, wobble during the retrieve is eliminated. Adjustable Handle Shank (except TN12 and TN14) allows the angler to use the handle in the short position for fast retrieves, or the extended position for more cranking power. Metal Series Metal frames keep moving parts in precise alignment for increased efficiency and durability. Chrome Plated Sideplate Screws The sideplate screws are chrome plated to prevent corrosion between the screws and sideplate.
