Formax Fortis Reel

Formax Fortis Reel

Fortis is a compact and lightweight reel built around a graphite body, providing enhanced corrosion resistance. The 6 stainless steel ball bearings (5BB + 1RB), along with the pinion gear, deliver a precise assembly that ensures smooth operation, making this reel model a reliable companion even for the most active fishing sessions, with hundreds of retrieves and casts per day.

The standard aluminum spool is perforated to equalize rotation during casting and fighting. The round metal line clip helps secure the fishing line when practicing fixed-point fishing. The multi-disc front drag system is equipped with both steel and oil-impregnated felt washers, allowing fine adjustment during the fight.

The Quick Set Infinite Anti-Reverse system (one-way roller bearing) allows the rotor to rotate in only one direction. The durable pickup wire, metal alloy handle, and TPE knob that fits perfectly in the palm complete the reel’s features.

NOTE: Sizes 2000 and 3000 can be successfully used for waggler fishing or spinning, while the 4000 size is recommended for feeder fishing. The reels are sold together with spare graphite spools.
