The Shimano 1500HG is engineered for anglers who demand precision, smoothness, and durability in challenging fishing conditions. Built with Shimano’s most advanced technologies, it combines power with lightweight design, delivering unmatched performance for both inshore and offshore applications.
Key Features:
MicroModule Gear System
Ultra-refined gear teeth provide seamless engagement and efficient power transmission, ensuring smooth, quiet, and consistent reeling.
HAGANE Body
Constructed from rigid aluminum and magnesium alloys, the body eliminates flex, warp, and distortion under load, reducing weight while maximizing strength.
X-Protect Technology
Six times more resistant than Core Protect, X-Protect utilizes a labyrinth structure and water-repellent treatment to prevent water intrusion, extending reel life in harsh saltwater conditions.
S-Compact Body
Ergonomic compact body design reduces weight and offers superior grip, giving anglers enhanced control and leverage when fighting strong fish.
E.I. Surface Treatment
After anodization, a second protective layer is added to penetrate surface impurities, leaving no place for salt to hide. This creates a highly corrosion-resistant and silky-smooth finish.
Exciting Drag Sound
A modern alternative to traditional clickers, the audible drag sound enhances the angling experience when a fish makes a powerful run.
S-ARB Bearings
Shielded Anti-Rust Bearings provide the same smooth performance as A-RB, but with added shielding for maximum protection against corrosion.
