CORROSION- RESISTANT ALUMINUM CONSTRUCTION:GW reel bodies and side covers are precision die-cast from a special corrosion-resistant aluminum, then anodized and painted in a multi-step process for maximum protection against saltwater damage.
RIGID ROTOR DESIGN: Rotor materials and designs are optimized by model to eliminate flex and maximize performance. 2500, 3000, and 4000 models feature strong and lightweight carbon polymer rotors, while 5000 and 6000 rotors are diecast aluminum to withstand the forces of heavier drag settings with heavier lines.
SEALED CARBON FIBER / ALUMINUM DRAG: Designed for a smooth and reliable angler experience from startup to lockdown, GW's drag stack is sealed to prevent performance-robbing saltwater intrusion. Multiple carbon fiber and aluminum washers are nearly impervious to wear and deliver extreme stopping power with maximum adjustability and heat dissipation.
IPX5 WATER-RESISTANT DESIGN: GW's engineering and overall IPX5 rating deliver peace-of-mind – both on the water and during wash downs at the dock. Gaskets and seals located at critical points on the body and spool keep GW's gearbox and drag system saltwater free, ensuring your GW reels are always in top shape and battle-ready.
1-YEAR WARRANTY: One-year warranty backed by no-questions-asked accelerated replacement program. Designed in Park Falls, Wisconsin, U.S.A. with an IPX5 water resistance rating
