Over the years, Daiwa Technology has set the standards for reel and rod development, and in 2016, Daiwa raises the bar and introduced an industry first, 12 Braid, the most advanced braided line ever. Developing the world's first 12 ply braid and applying Daiwa’s UVF (Ultra Volume Fibre) and +Si Evo Silicone, Daiwa has produced the ultimate high-density braid exhibiting supreme abrasion resistance and ultimate strength. With 72% improved abrasion resistance, 20% more strength, an 18% more slippery surface and 30% less line stretch compared to other 8 braid premium PE lines, the 12 braid is the ultimate in line technology. By reducing the diameter and creating an ultra smooth surface, this allows 12 braid to produce less friction/resistance on the guides and spool rim allowing for longer smoother casting, less noise, minimal water penetration and incredible sensitivity.You will feel more connected to your rod and reel. Saltiga 12 is the ultimate heavy duty jigging and casting line for big game fish. Colour-coded every 10 meters and marked every 1 and 5 meters to allow you full line control. 12 Braid will change your fishing style.
