Daiwa 26 Certate SW – Power Drive Technology for Offshore Big Game

The Daiwa 26 Certate SW spinning reel is engineered for offshore big game fishing, continuing the legacy of the renowned Certate series. Built to target large marine predators, it combines a full metal monocoque body, reinforced transmission system, and advanced sealing technologies for maximum reliability under extreme loads.

Full Metal Monocoque Body

The high-rigidity aluminum MQ body minimizes flex and power loss, protecting the gear system and ensuring consistent precision during heavy fights.

Power Drive Design

At the core of the reel lies the Power Drive Design, derived from the Saltiga concept, structured into two main units:

Power Drive Engine (Body Unit)

Oversized Power DigiGear: large-diameter, high-strength gears delivering increased torque and durability.

Roller Power Oscillation: low-friction oscillation system improving smoothness and line lay consistency.

Power Drive Rotor (Rotor Unit)
Constructed in Zaion, the rotor is stiffer and more responsive than previous generations while maintaining controlled inertia. This ensures lightweight, fluid retrieve—ideal for single jerk actions, plug fishing, and technical lure presentations.

Line Management & Casting Performance

Crank Power Bail and Tough Line Roller System provide precise line guidance and seamless transition between casting and retrieve.

The LC-ABS SW spool with dual-step design reduces line friction, enhances late-stage casting performance, and increases overall casting distance.

Sealing & Durability

An improved handle gasket enhances water resistance, while Magsealed technology on the pinion gear and line roller ensures protection against saltwater intrusion even in extreme marine environments.

The 26 Certate SW integrates the most advanced Certate technologies into a powerful, smooth, and reliable spinning reel—designed to push limits and maintain absolute control when battling trophy fish.
