The 2021 Sustain series is one of the strongest in the Magnum Lite range. Re-engineered from top to bottom, the new sustain series features a range of new upgrades like MicroModule II and MGL Rotor to improve its finesse and on water performance. This model incorporates MGL rotor to create light a start-up which allows the angler to wind faster and set the hooks quicker. Combining the MGL Rotor with the Hagane body produces a lightweight, yet strong reel that can handle those big saltwater battles. It is lighter than its predecessor and the Sustain now features a Long Stroke Spool to provide anglers with improved castability. MicroModule II gearing is combined with Shimano's cold forged Hagane Gear and Silent Drive technologies — for smoother reeling performance. The matte black finish with gold trim and 8+1 ball bearings is sure to impress all anglers and the new feature upgrades will keep turning the heads of hard fighting fish.

Product Technologies:

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.

Micromodule II

Improved Micro Module gearing, making the reeling extreme smooth.

Xship

XShip is a combination of features that work together to create much greater efficiency. By positioning the pinion gear close to the centre line of the large diameter drive gear, more power is transferred from the handle to the rotor. The pinion gear is also supported by two Shimano ARB roller bearings. This creates more stability.

Hagane Body

The HAGANE Body is produced from highrigidity aluminium or magnesium. This creates stiffness and impact resistance, while at the same time eliminating flexing of the body. The result is a rocksolid housing and support for the moving internal gearing and greater efficiency throughout the reel.

Silent Drive

Removed 'clicking' sound and 'handle play' and overall improved smooth reeling.

MGL Rotor

The new design of the Magnumlite Rotor produces unprecedented light rotation. The rotor profile, which was previously symmetrical, is now asymmetrical. The bail arm mechanism, which was previously situated on the same side as the line roller, has been moved to the opposite side. This improves balance and combines with a lightweight line roller, titan bail and optimum arrangement of rotor thickness. a 14% saving in rotation inertia has been achieved increasing sensitivity to previously unreached levels.

Xprotect

The contact type triplelip structure is introduced to the roller clutch, the pivotal point concerning water resistance. In this structure, the first lip prevents water from entering through the space between the rotor and the body. In addition, the special grease between the second and third lip where it makes contact with the rotor collar located at the upper part of the roller clutch not only resists water from entering but also minimizes friction resistance. Without jeopardizing the 'silky smooth rotation capacity', the vital feature of STELLA SW, exceptional water resistance. has been achieved to withstand the crashing and splashing of waves and spray.

G FREE BODY

G Free Body technology has been developed to shift the reel's center of gravity closer to the rod. This has been achieved by moving the worm shaft oscillation mechanism 19mm from the bottom of the reel to the top. By moving the center of gravity closer to the angler’s hand position, the G Free Body helps to reduce fatigue and enhance casting comfort.

Arc Spool

Shimano ARC Spool is a patented spool design with an angled spool lip. This design enables the line to leave the spool with less friction and in smaller coils resulting in longer more accurate casts. ARC spools are proven to reduce backlash and wind knots when using braid.

Long Stroke Spool

The long stroke spool design improves casting performance when compared to the previous model due to improved line flow from the spool.

C14 Plus

C14+ is an advanced version of the original C14. This highly technical material is 2.5 times stiffer than C14 and is used on many high-end Shimano reels to increase weight savings.  Use of C14+ for the body and rotor also delivers remarkable stiffness for better reel efficiency.

Rigid Support Drag

Rigid Support Drag eliminates spool movement and wobble. even at light drag settings. The result is an incredibly smooth drag even at extremely light settings.

S ARB

Shimano S ARB bearings are high corrosion resistant ARB ball bearings with an extra shield for improved protection against sand, salt, or dust.

Cross Carbon Drag

This carbon drag material provides a wider range of drag settings, along with the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever.
