Product Information
The Shimano Technium is a sinking monofilament line for carp fishing, with low stretch, high abrasion resistance and a high strength to diameter ratio.
Its three-layer construction reduces linear stretch to 12 per cent while retaining the suppleness needed for trouble-free fishing.
The hyper-resistant centre core provides the line's low-stretch and sinking properties. Its second layer supplies suppleness for casting performance and knot strength, while the outer layer protects against UV light and creates a smooth surface that reduces casting friction.
Quarter-pound spools cover 0.26mm at 8lb with 1,920m, through to 0.38mm at 15lb with 790m. The intermediate 10lb and 12lb spools hold 1,250m and 1,100m respectively, giving four breaking strains across the range.
