The CERTATE has been recrafted with a monocoque aluminium body bringing its lightness and toughness to the apex of mechanical engineering.

The combination of the LT Concept and the Monocoque Body offers unprecedented lightness. The Monocoque body comes in a new compact design – giving the Certate LT 2019 a surreal compromise between minimalist design and the sensational power on the retrieve.

LIGHT & TOUGH

Light and Tough – isn’t this any angler’s ultimate dream? This LT concept has redefined the design of the Certate, with weight being shaved from every component. The ethos among our Daiwa Japan engineers has been to develop the very best Formula 1 by breaking the traditional compromise between lightness and durability. The Certate LT 2019 has been born.

MONOCOQUE BODY

The Monocoque build boasts an aluminium frame designed to resist torque and bending in a slim outline that optimises space for the drive and mech. The screw system has optimised space meaning the ratio of the size of the gear system to the volume of the body has been pushed to its technical limit. The higher-diameter drive gear now occupies 85% of the total space of the Monocoque body. This technology optimises the advantages of the LT Concept on both the weight and power fronts. The aluminium body Certate LT 2019 has been given a high-precision treatment and increased durability.

TOUGH DIGIGEAR

This gearing technology offers even smoother and longer-lasting rotation. Total handling pleasure as soon as you start winding: the slightest touch will set the rotor into action. The Tough Digigear drive has been designed by high-precision forging and digital tooling. This feat of engineering offers infinitely silent winding.

MAGSEALED

Anglers facing the coastal elements, spray, and other corrosive environments demand that reel performance is preserved no matter the circumstances. Daiwa have risen to this challenge by guaranteeing the total sealing of a rotating element – the rotor – against the body. This has been achieved by the application of our MagSealed oil, which is held in place by a magnetic field preventing the intrusion of any water or other impurities into the mech. The Certate LT 2019 boasts a Monocoque structure meaning there is no welding and no flanges – this only boosts the overall waterproofing of the reel. It’s also the reason MagSealed oil has been applied to the pinion and on the pick-up roller. The spool structure has been revised and refined to increase its impermeability compared to the previous series.
