SpeedX® is an extreme performance lubricant whose additives chemically react with metal surfaces and subsurfaces to reduce wear and provide the lowest coefficient of friction measurable. SpeedX lubricates better than products with PTFE. It gives long-lasting, heat-resistant lubrication, decreases wear and extends the useful life of treated items and parts. Skateboards, roller skates, chains and derailleurs operate smoother, quieter, with greater efficiency and last longer when treated with SpeedX.
SpeedX thrives under heavy loads and high temperatures! Other lubricating oils are displaced by moisture and pressure – so their effectiveness is diminished. Even under the best circumstances, other lubricants don't last (comparatively) very long. Not so with SpeedX! SpeedX Polar Bonds with metal and metal alloys and clings tenaciously like a magnet. SpeedX releases the surface tension of moisture, displaces it and maintains its fantastic lubricating capability. The exotic additive package in SpeedX is activated by heat, either external or internal (frictional heating), and causes the surface and subsurface of the metal to be modified. The modified surface becomes both smoother, allowing for the transition to hydrodynamic lubrication more easily, and intrinsically possesses a lower coefficient of friction.
SpeedX does not contain any corrosive chlorine or suspended solids such as PTFE, graphite or molybdenum disulfide. The three-dimensional graph below plots Load (x-axis) and Temperature (y-axis) in degrees F against the friction coefficient (z-axis). The friction coefficient is defined as the frictional force (perpendicular to the wear surface) divided by the applied load. The measurements taken in this example range from 2,000 psi to 40,000 psi in load and 75˚ to 300˚F.
The Laguna LT is the latest manifestation in Daiwa's LT storyline. The redesigned reel embraces the LT Concept of light and tough. The True Carbon Frame reduces weight and size, yet is as rigid as conventional materials.
The Air Rotor System improves balance and rotation and reduces rotor weight by 15%. Reel performance is silky smooth with 3 ball bearings and 1 roller bearing. Few reels in this price range have 3 ball bearings. The Machined Aluminum handle is swept back and the knob is oversized and ergonomically designed.
Available in 1000 to 3000 series sizes the Daiwa Laguna LT is a versatile line of workhorse reels, designed to put anglers of all skill levels in the high tech world of spinning reels. If you want to experienced the best of Daiwa engineering at a smart price, look for the new, reengineered Laguna LT spinning reel.
The Ballistic LT embodies Daiwa's LT design concept of Light but Tough with a feather-light yet rigid Zaion housing. At the heart of the reel is a machined Aluminum Alloy DIGIGEAR designed for smoothness, strength and durability. The main shaft utilizes Daiwa's proprietary Magseal technology, which prevents water and debris intrusion. The reel is long-casting and extremely smooth employing a 7 Bearing System. With models ranging from 1000 to 6000 size the Ballistic LT spinning reels are designed for a wide range of applications incorporating many different techniques in both fresh and saltwater. The Ballistic LT series of reels is a prime example of Daiwa’s commitment to the LT Concept of modern spinning reel design, smaller, lighter yet stronger.
Daiwa Technology Found In Ballistic LT Spinning Reels :
LT Concept - The LT family of reels boast a smaller, lighter, more compact body which is paired with a larger DigiGear for the ultimate combination of Light and Tough.
DigiGear - The all-new DigiGear is precision machine cut and polished. This results in unmatched efficiency, better transfer of energy, and maximum smoothness.
MagSeal - MagSeal is the process of using MagOil, a special liquid developed through space engineering, to create a water and dust resistant barrier. Unlike rubber seals, MagOil will not effect the rotational performance of a reel. This creates a seal that allows the reel to maintain a light and smooth rotation for optimal performance.
Air Rotor - The Air Rotor weighs up to 15% less than ordinary rotor designs. Its unique shape reduces unnecessary weight while distributing stress more evenly throughout the rotor for maximum strength.
Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings - Corrosion Resistant Ball Bearings boast a lifespan up to 12 times longer than traditional stainless steel bearings.
The Ballistic you have come to know and love has been redesigned and upgraded. Still featuring the LT Concept for the ultimate in Light and Tough performance- now complete with our Monocoque Body (MQ) for even more power and a more compact frame. An MQ frame design allows us to fit a larger gear inside of the reel, adding power and longevity to your gear set. A 360 degree screw-in sideplate removes to need for traditional sideplate screws, allowing for a more compact and more weather resistant housing.
Utilizing our all new ZAION-V frame material, which is a more machinable compound than our standard Zaion, allows us to feature Zaion-V in a wider range of reels. Very similar in function to Zaion, Zaion-V is extremely durable, corrosion resistant and rigid.
Complete with a Magsealed main shaft to prevent water and debris intrusion, the Ballistic MQ LT is ready to take on the toughest battles.
The reel is long-casting and extremely smooth employing an 8 Bearing System and with models ranging from 1000 to 4000, the Ballistic LT line of spinning reels are designed for a wide range of gamefish incorporating many different techniques.
The Ballistic MQ LT series of reels is a prime example of our commitment to design, function and innovation.
