Meet the Quantum Benchmark™ spinning reel which is built to catch anything from trout to tarpon. The reels are manufactured to the highest quality standards and live up to the name “Benchmark.” An aluminum frame keeps all of the gears and bearings in perfect alignment. One of the great advantages of this reel is that it is fully sealed with Quantum’s SEALOQ™ 6 (rated to IPX6) technology which protects the internal components from water, salt, and sand for long-lasting performance. A class leading CFX200™ Carbon Fiber Xtreme drag system offers impressive max drags, great range, and a consistent curve, for impressive fish stopping power. In addition to best-in-class max drags, the machined gearing is precisely cut from premium aluminum and brass to achieve a perfect blend of cranking power and gear smoothness. Available in sizes 2500-8000 and combos, visit your local dealer today!
