When you're out on the water, the right tackle setup can help you outsmart the fish and catch the Big One. Toward that end, avid anglers will enjoy the remarkable performance, durability and consistency found in the Quantum Smoke line of reels. These renowned reels are known for a precision manufacturing not previously seen in baitcast reels, which is why they've been adopted by winning tour pros Gerald Swindle, Dean Rojas, Shaw Grigsby, Kevin VanDam, and others.
Technology
- Maximum Control: Quantum's ACS system is arguably the most accurate braking system ever designed for baitcast reels. The external dial allows you to adjust the centrifugal brakes to match the fishing situation without having to disassemble the reel.
- "Burner" 7.0:1 Gears: The Burner gear system allows you to reel your line back in with remarkable speed, helping you cover more water and target hot spots more effectively in a shorter period of time.
- Quantum Hot Sauce: Contains a proprietary blend of synthetic and organic additives to provide a balance between performance, protection, durability, and smoothness in both grease and oil for all fishing equipment.
- Customized Bearings: Most reels use stock bearings made for other applications. Quantum, on the other hand, designed its own high-grade stainless bearings to exact specifications, minimizing vibration and friction, and fits them in a special polymer cage for added sensitivity and corrosion protection.
- Ceramic Washers: PT drag systems feature ceramic washers to dissipate heat during long runs, while reducing wear in baitcast levelwind systems.
- Metal Construction: All PT reels begin with single-piece aluminum frames, each machined with computer-guided precision, to hold all critical components in alignment. High-strength grades of aluminum yield lightweight reels that will not flex, even during heavy cranking.
