PBR
The Galvan push button spool release mechanism is intuitively simplistic and elegantly efficient. Spool removal is literally a snap. With a slight press of the button the spool pops off the frame and with a slight click a new spool is ready in place.
T² ANODIZED
Galvan reels and spools are Type T2 anodized and incorporate minimal material points of contact making them corrosion resistant and saltwater safe. The aluminum oxide layer provides Galvan reels with supreme wear and corrosion protection. Limiting the metal materials that come in contact with each other protects this anodizing, limiting electrolysis and corrosion. Additionally, the thermoplastics used in the drag disc and spool bushing continue to protect from weather and wear. The anodization is flawless and the reels come in several vibrant colors at no extra cost.
The new Grip series is extremely attractive and sports a clear (silver) color scheme with bright blue accents. Fully machined from 6061 T6 aluminum, these large-arbor reels utilize a fully-sealed MicroTune carbon fiber drag system for total protection from the elements. The Type II anodized saltwater-safe frame and spool also feature easy switching to right or left retrieve, XL handle, easy spool release, and light weight thanks to the generously-ported design.
