Shimano Sustain 4000 XG FK - 2025 Fishing reel

The SHIMANO Sustain FK is a spinning reel designed for saltwater and freshwater fishing, combining lightness, strength and exceptional control. As part of the MAGNUMLITE series, the model is equipped with an ultra-responsive MGL Rotor, which reduces inertia during rotation and provides more precise control over the lure and a better feel when guiding. Compared to the previous model, the Sustain FK has been significantly improved with higher-end technologies, including INFINITYDRIVE, which minimizes drag and provides smoother and more powerful winding, as well as INFINITYXROSS, which reinforces gear engagement for greater durability under prolonged load. The addition of INFINITYLOOP and ANTI-TWIST FIN significantly improves line lay and control, limits line slack and increases casting accuracy, which is a tangible improvement over the previous generation. The reel is equipped with a stable and reliable DURACROSS advance, which provides constant and smooth braking force, even during active fishing. Lightweight, durable and perfectly balanced, the SHIMANO Sustain FK is ready to deliver pleasure and confidence with every cast, making it an excellent choice for anglers looking for a high-end all-purpose reel from SHIMANO.

HAGANE - A SHIMANO design concept designed to withstand prolonged use and extreme stress on the reel.

HAGANE BODY - The reel body is made of aluminum-magnesium alloy using cold stamping technology. By using this technology, very high hardness and impact resistance of the body is achieved. The prerequisites for bending or deforming the housing are eliminated, which in turn leads to more precise operation of the mechanisms and the drum.

HAGANE GEAR - The main gear is made from a single piece of metal alloy using SHIMANO HAGANE cold forming technology, without additional machining. This ensures smoothness, strength, lightness and strength at the very heart of the reel.

MAGNUMLITE - Shimano's technology aimed at minimizing the weight and inertia of rotating parts, especially the rotor. This provides faster response when spinning, better control over the bait, higher sensitivity and less fatigue during prolonged fishing.

MICROMODULE II - Micromodule II, is a unique Shimano technology that improves the shape and smoothness of the teeth and gears. Perfect design of the elements. By pursuing the ideal shape and smoothness, a very low noise level and smooth movement of the gears have been achieved.

X-SHIP - A specially developed gear system with multiple elements that increase strength and power. Through the larger diameter and central location of the main gear and gear, more power is transferred from the handle to the reel rotor. The gear, in turn, is supported by two Shimano ARB roller bearings for added stability.

INFINITYLOOP - Shimano technology that provides extremely even and dense line lay, reduces friction when casting and allows for longer distance and better control.

INFINITYXROSS - Offers longer gear life. This gives you more durability and security.

INFINITYDRIVE - Contributes to powerful rotation, which at the same time is light to the touch, even when reeling in large lures.

SILENTDRIVE - The basic design of the entire body and parts related to movement are revised one by one, completely eliminating fine looseness, gaps, shakes between parts and details. Target areas for improvement include drive gear, worm shaft, worm shaft pin, worm shaft gear, etc. Smooth rotation in a new dimension, winding with silence.

DURACROSS - The brake discs are made of a special composite material, providing higher durability, smooth operation and stable braking force, significantly extending the life of the brake disc even with intensive use.

MGL ROTOR - The rotor is lightweight and has an optimized shape to reduce inertia during rotation. This provides faster response, smoother reel start, better control over the bait and higher sensitivity when fishing.

ANTI TWIST FIN - This technology is for trouble-free winding of the fiber. It controls the tension in the B line, which passes through the pulley of the bobbin.

X-ROTEST - A specially constructed labyrinth structure of several teeth with added lubricant between them, prevents water from entering between the rotor and the reel body. At the same time, this eliminates frictional resistance between these two elements.

G FREE WATER - Moves the center of gravity of the reel closer to the rod. This is achieved by moving the oscillating mechanism 19 millimeters closer to the line. As a result, the reel does not bounce when spinning and the casting distance is increased.

LONG STROKE Spool - The elongated shape of the spool and the beveled edges improve the flight distance by 4%.

CI4+ - Shimano's advanced composite material technology is extremely lightweight, very strong and resistant to corrosion. The use of CI4+ allows for lighter and stiffer bodies and rotors, resulting in better balance, higher sensitivity and longer reel life

HEAT SINK DRAG is Shimano technology that removes and dissipates heat from the drag system, preventing overheating and ensuring consistent, smooth and reliable drag operation even during prolonged and heavy fights with large fish.

RIGID SUPPORT DRAG - Shimano technology in which the advance pulleys are stably supported on both sides, which prevents twisting and deformation and ensures smoother, more precise and consistent advance operation even under heavy load.

SA-RB - The bearings have gone through the same process as the A-RB, but are additionally protected with "shields" on both sides. These "shields" reduce the ingress of salt from seawater or sand into the bearings and interfere with their operation.

ONE-PIECE ВАІL - A reel made from one piece, allowing the line to pass unhindered to the reel. This reduces friction and the chance of the line tangling.
