Rapala engineers have developed the R-Type spinning reel for use by hard core saltwater anglers, with large drags, large capacities and quality componentry, guaranteed not to let you down.
The Rapala R-Type Spinning reels develop drag ranges from 8 to 18kg, which is impressive in a reels of these sizes. Strength is supplied through the use of a full metal body and rotor. Moving parts are supported with a 6 1 Bearing system. The ported alloy spool features a water shielded drag system, ensuring smooth drag operation right through the drag range and is braid ready. The oversized handle and handle knob are perfect for heavy fishing and of course features a screw into main gear handle shaft, essential when working the reel hard.
