24 CERTATE

Unwavering Trust and the Joy of Resonance with Your Senses

We strive to create a spinning reel that anglers will cherish for years. one that isn’t tailored to a specific individual but to all anglers. Our goal has always been to achieve comfortable operability and reliable rigidity. This philosophy. embodied in CERTATE. remains unchanged even after 20 years.

The new CERTATE features the next-generation spinning reel design philosophy known as “Air Drive Design.” a pinnacle of CERTATE’s pursuit of comfortable operability. This design philosophy aims to allow anglers to manipulate lures exactly as desired. composed of up to four technologies. The benefits of fully integrating this Air Drive Design are immense: optimal weight balance for smooth operation. a light and responsive rotational feel that integrates seamlessly with the tackle. heightened sensitivity to even slight fish strikes and changes in the current. and significantly reduced line trouble frequency. This is CERTATE’s clear answer to the demands of modern anglers. The new ATD TYPE-L drag system reduces line strain. ensuring a smooth. high-response start for a secure and enjoyable fight.

This level of operability is unattainable without solid rigidity. which is why CERTATE has always emphasized robustness. A symbol of this dedication is the “Monocoque Body” made from a single piece of aluminum. This design significantly minimizes body flex under high loads. delivering strong winding power through Daiwa’s unique technology. The engine plate. also aluminum. screws into this monocoque body. ensuring the internal structure is solidly supported by the full metal body. The drive gear inside has undergone a special surface treatment to enhance hardness and reduce damage under heavy loads. The main shaft. transmitting this power to the front unit. is made from SUS. which is even more rigid than aluminum. maximizing performance without power loss.

Reliable rigidity and comfortable operabilitythis unwavering quality is the hallmark of accumulated trust. The NEW CERTATE. marking its 20th anniversary with rightful evolution. stands as the new standard spinning reel for all anglers in a new era.
