TWIN
DRAG
Our patented TwinDrag
TM
technology utilizes carbon fiber drag washers
and stainless-steel friction washers on both sides of the gear to create
the strongest smoothest drag possible.

T
raditional fishing reel design applies the drag pressure to only one side
of the spool — resulting in uneven pressure placed on reel components
and excessive heat buildup. The TwinDrag™ system applies equal pressure
to both sides of the spool which distributes the drag friction over the
surface of two drag plates instead of one. That’s 50% of the total drag
pressure on each side, resulting in a smoother drag with less heat build-
up and a balanced load on reel bearings and spool. TwinDrag reels also
have extremely accurate drag settings with very little fluctuation. In fact,
Valiant reels will fluctuate less than 1-pound in total drag when line is
drawn at any speed. For example: when the drag is set to 20 pounds on
a Valiant reel, drag pressure will only vary between 19.5 and 20.5 pounds,
or less!
