The Westin W4 W-SW spinning reel is made for warm-water saltwater fishing and powerful, fast-running tropical species. Its robust K-Alloy aluminium body and rotor provide rigidity under pressure, helping keep the gears aligned for winding power. The 5+1 sealed stainless steel bearing system, one-piece sealed stainless steel instant anti-reverse and IPX5 rating help protect against saltwater intrusion. The sealed Carbon Matrix drag uses three carbon washers in size 5000 and five washers in sizes 6000, 8000 and 10000, with stopping power up to 30lbs. Sizes 6000, 8000 and 10000 feature CNC Hard Brass main gears, while size 5000 has a CNC aluminium main gear. All sizes have a forged, braid-ready aluminium spool with double anodising, a machined aluminium folding handle with a TPE knob, a stainless steel mainshaft, Rotor Brake and thin spool lines. Manual bail trip is fitted to sizes 6000, 8000 and 10000.
