Overview

Shimano engineers designed Antares 100 B to deliver exceptional casting performance and smoothness, setting a new standard within the Shimano baitcasting reel lineup. The series features innovative braking and line management technologies unique to this flagship series, offering anglers advanced precision and control. To achieve ultra-low spool vibration and maximize casting distance, the Antares 100 B integrates two cutting-edge technologies: the MGL Spool IV and the SVS Infinity braking system. The MGL Spool IV's new reverse-taper design addresses line winding issues that often cause unbalanced spool rotation and vibration. The SVS Infinity system uses internal centrifugal force to adjust the braking based on spool speed — applying more resistance at the start of the cast and less as the cast progresses. This combination minimizes backlashes and enhances casting distance, particularly with light lures. In addition to its sleek, futuristic look, the Antares 100 B boasts ergonomic features like a compact, palm-friendly magnesium HAGANE Body and a redesigned clutch for effortless operation and improved spool access. Now available in North America in a versatile 100 size with both HG and XG right and left-handed models, the Antares 100 B is ideal for anglers seeking the pinnacle of technology and performance in a baitcasting reel.

Cross Carbon Drag Baitcasting

The Cross Carbon Drag material provides a wider range of drag settings compared to traditional drag materials. The Cross Carbon Drag provides the smoothest Shimano drag performance ever while providing anglers with increased durability.

HAGANE Body Baitcasting

The HAGANE Body is a metal reel body with high rigidity. The body rigidity and impact resistance virtually eliminates body flexing on the reel while fighting fish. The result transforms the angler's actions directly into cranking power, increasing efficiency through strength.

HAGANE

HAGANE is a Shimano reel design concept created to withstand continual use and extreme abuse. HAGANE is an innovation with built-in toughness and durability that works alongside Shimano's precision engineering. HAGANE is for all anglers.

MicroModule Gear Baitcasting

The MicroModule Gear system creates a smooth retrieve by utilizing smaller teeth to increase the number of contact points between the drive gear and pinion gear. Ultimately, this produces a more efficient gear train with less of a gear feel.

S3D Spool

S3D technology leads to significantly reduced spool vibration. By designing and constructing a balanced and uniform thin-wall aluminum spool, S3D creates an incredibly smooth feeling when casting and retrieving lures.

S A-RB Baitcasting

S A-RB bearings are put through the same process as Shimano’s A-RB bearings but feature shields on both sides of the bearings. These shields reduce the possibility of salt or sand inhibiting rotation of the bearing.

SilentTune

By applying slight pressure to the bearing holding the spool, SilentTune reduces the vibration of the bearing during high-speed rotation. This improves the quietness while casting and the rise of the spool rotation becomes even smoother.

Super Free Spool

Super Free Spool eliminates friction on the spool shaft during the cast. Standard baitcasting reels are constructed in a way that when the clutch bar is pressed down, the pinion gear is freed and can actually drag on the spool shaft. This creates friction that can limit the length of a cast. But baitcasting reels with Super Free Spool are constructed so that the pinion gear is supported by a ball bearing. When the clutch is disengaged in preparation for a cast, the pinion gear and spool shaft are kept in perfect alignment. The result: zero friction is placed upon the spool shaft and enhances casting performance.

SVS Infinity

Shimano's newest innovation in brake system technology, SVS Infinity, provides easy-to-manage, consistent spool control and brake force. With brake weights that use inner friction against the raceway during the cast, SVS Infinity controls spool speed for precision casting, especially when using lighter lures. The external adjustment knob provides for quick, precise adjustments when anglers need to adjust to the conditions or when they switch baits.

X-Ship Baitcasting

X-Ship provides improved gear durability. By supporting the pinion gear on both ends with bearings, the pinion gear maintains precise alignment with the drive gear. This allows the gears to stay in the same position under the heaviest loads. The added benefit of X-Ship technology is that friction between the spool shaft and gear are eliminated. This further benefits anglers with enhanced casting performance and casting distance of lighter lures.
