The solid one-piece stamped aluminum reel stem and rotor arm are paired with lightweight graphite side plates and a rotor housing which provides strength where needed, and weight savings where possible. The Trio spool construction utilizes a multi-piece construction, housing the drag system in an Aluminum Drag Chamber for added stability and smoothness, while utilizing a lightweight graphite housing for weight reduction and distinctive styling.
The drag system found in the Trio series is a Dual Force Drag (DFD) system featuring multi-disc Japanese-oiled felt drag washers. This DFD system provides tension on the spool from both the top and the bottom. In addition to greater drag pressure, this system is smoother and more stable than traditional drag systems that only provide tension on one side of the spool.
Nine ball bearings and a Quick-set anti-reverse roller bearing provide excellent casting ability as well as smooth and consistent retrieves. Okuma’s patented Elliptical Oscillation System (EOS) is also featured in the Trio, which provides smoother performance and promotes even line lay.
To add to the Trio’s durability, each reel features Okuma’s Corrosion Resistant Coating (CRC) process. This process combines the Corrosion Resistant, High Density Gearing (HDGII) along with a special coating of Corrosion X HD to all internal housing and parts. This coating bonds to the metal parts and further promotes corrosion resistance.
Additional features include a rigid, forged aluminum handle design, Okuma’s Hydro Block watertight drag seal, a heavy duty, solid aluminum, anodized bail wire and a computer-balanced Rotor Equalizing System (RESII).
