SLPWORKS Daiwa SLPW EX LT Spool 2 5000S – ATD TYPE-L Air Drive Spool for Daiwa Reels

Elevated spool design for Daiwa reels

The SLP Works SLPW EX LT Spool 2 5000S combines refined Daiwa engineering with a sleek, premium look. This small-spool flagship is built for anglers who value smooth performance, precise control, and a touch of luxury in every retrieve.

ATD TYPE-L drag system: The Type-L design enhances drag initialization response as line comes under load. Expect a more responsive start to retrieves, with smoother transitions when a strike occurs and the reel begins to take line. This is about improved control during the early stages of a fight, rather than a guaranteed outcome.

Air Drive Spool and anti-thread construction: The Air Drive Spool body is engineered to reduce friction and promote easy line release, especially during long casts. An anti-thread contour (mouse-back shape) helps minimize line winding into the main shaft, contributing to steadier retrieves and fewer tangles on spools with lighter lines.

Light-line tuning for quick landings: Tuning adjustments are optimized for lightweight lines, reducing unnecessary load on the line and helping anglers achieve quicker, cleaner landings. This setup aims to balance line capacity with line protection and smoother casting, depending on your chosen line and target species.

Two-stage spool edge: Long Cast-ABS: The spool edge features a two-stage design that lowers friction during line release, supporting longer casts with smoother line control. This can translate to steadier line control and more predictable casts in various conditions.

Model compatibility and tuning options: This spool is designed to pair with 18 EXIST, 21 LUVIAS AIRITY, and 19 CERTATE reels, making ATD TYPE-L and AIR DRIVE SPOOL tuning accessible across multiple Daiwa platforms. When paired with your preferred line, it offers a versatile upgrade path for your setup.

What’s in the box and installation notes: As of the latest information, installing the EX LT Spool 2 doesn’t require drag-knob replacement on compatible Daiwa reels. Genuine Daiwa service remains available if needed. The package includes a winding state adjustment washer, an English-language instruction sheet when available, a titanium ring installed, and one CRBB bearing.
