Daiwa J-Braid Expedition X8E Smash Orange 150 m 0,22 mm 19,5 kg

The Daiwa J-Braid Expedition X8E fishing line is a braided line made in Japan from Izanas fibres. Thanks to DAIWA Silicon 'Coating PE' technology, it has a smoother surface that facilitates long casts and improves sensitivity. The tighter weave ensures a round profile that won't fray or separate with use. With a breaking strain of 19.5kg and a diameter of 0.22mm, it's ideal as a mainline for various fishing techniques where you'll appreciate its increased abrasion resistance.

Construction and surface treatment

The core of the line is made from Izanas fibres, which are more tightly woven to achieve a round profile. This prevents the individual fibres from separating or fraying during use. The surface is treated with DAIWA Silicon Coating PE technology, which gives it smoothness and hydrophobic properties. The smoother surface reduces friction in the rod guides and enables longer casts. Because the line does not absorb water, mud or other sediments, it retains its properties and its abrasion resistance is increased.
