Shimano Ocea 8 Casting Braid SW Blue

Cast further

A premium quality braided line manufactured in Japan, the new
Shimano Ocea 8 Casting Braid is designed to match
Shimano’s flagship Stella SW and Ocea Jigger series reels.

The pull strength of the new Ocea 8 is improved up to 25% greater
than the previous EX8 for the same diameter. Ocea 8 utilises
Shimano’s exclusive Tough Cross braiding method. What makes it
stand out from the rest is that the line is woven at 45 degrees
under tension to create a tighter fibre structure, making it more
stable, easier to manage and possesses increased abrasion
resistance. Shimano Heat Sink coating has been developed and
applied to the line to reduce concentration of heat from guide and
drag pressure on the line. The Izanas fibre has a new and improved
fibre lay technology exclusive to Shimano, which prevents
flattening of the line that could lead to premature breakage. As a
result the pull strength and abrasion resistance is vastly
improved. This braid is designed for casting and comes in solid
blue colour.
