Description

The Shimano Kairiki 8 multi color is an eight-strand filament made in Japan, ideal for almost all fishing techniques.

Incredibly strong, with a smooth texture, designed for long casts and manufactured with Shimano's VT Construction Method technology for long-lasting durability.

It has been tested in really tough conditions with the best results.

  • Length: 150 meters
  • Diameter: 0.23 millimeters
  • Strength: 22.50 kilograms

Advanced Japanese VT Construction Method

The Shimano Kairiki 8 is manufactured in Japan using the advanced VT Construction Method braiding technology. This method enables the extremely tight and uniform braiding of the 8 individual PE strands under high tension. The result is a line with a perfectly round cross-section, a stable structure, and an exceptionally smooth surface that reduces friction to a minimum, allowing you to make casts to distances that until recently seemed impossible.

Top Strength and Zero Elasticity

With a diameter of just 0.23mm, the Kairiki 8 demonstrates an impressive strength of 22.5kg (50lbs), offering the essential confidence needed to set the hook and retrieve large, powerful fish. Its almost zero stretch instantly transfers every touch and nibble directly to your rod, delivering top-level sensitivity and immediate response, even when fishing at great depths or in strong currents.

Soft Texture and Quiet Operation in the Guides

Thanks to its premium surface treatment, the line is incredibly soft to the touch and extremely flexible. This silky texture ensures that the line slides completely silently through the guides of the rod, eliminating noise and resistance. At the same time, its softness helps create strong and secure knots without stressing the material, dramatically reducing the likelihood of unwanted tangles and snarls during casting.

  • 100 casts counted one by one and there were 10 tangles, that is, every 10 casts there was a tangle which couldn't be untangled and I had to cut it, so I easily lost 70 meters of line, wasted money

  • It is a very strong thread, durable and relatively quiet on the guides. I bought a cheap Chinese one for a change and realized why quality threads cost so much.
