Daiwa 22 TD Battler Graphite Rods

Daiwa’s flagship light-tackle rod series has been totally overhauled with the introduction of the 22 TD BATTLER AGS series. The pinnacle of Daiwa Australia rod design, 22 TD BATTLER AGS was a ground-up redevelopment with brand-new technology combining with decades of local knowledge and design experience from Daiwa’s product development team in Australia.

Detailed Description

It all starts with the blank, and TD BATTLER AGS is using SVF Compile-X Nanoplus graphite. This is an incredibly high-modulus carbon sheet with nano-technology resin which offers unmatched sensitivity and power-to-weight ratio. Allowing for blanks which are both incredibly lightweight, and ultra-crisp and responsive.

Daiwa’s newest generation Air Guide System (AGS) carbon fibre guides have been equipped on TD BATTLER AGS. These feature improved frame design to minimise line tangles and slimmer ceramic inserts to further reduce weight and minimise friction for longer casts.

The blanks have been further improved using a clever combination of Daiwa’s 3DX and X45X Full Shield graphite technologies. Both work together to increase torsional stiffness to reduce blank twisting and eliminate power loss when loading. The result is an even crisper and more responsive blank which is the standard for the iconic TD BATTLER AGS series.

Fans of Daiwa rods from the past will instantly recognise the distinct clear finish to TD BATTLER AGS’s new AIRSENSOR hybrid reel seat. These new reel seats have been carefully designed to improve comfort with features like offset blanks in the baitcast rod to make your hand sit lower and make palming reels more comfortable.
