Abu Garcia Max SX Spinning Reel 4000 6.4kg 258g 78cm 5.2:1

Abu Garcia Max SX 4000 — Compact Power for Versatile Spinning

The Max SX 4000 delivers tournament-inspired design in a compact, lightweight package. Featuring asymmetric graphite construction, V-Rotor technology, and Rocket Line Management™, this reel handles both mono and braid with confidence.

Lightweight Precision Engineering

At just 258 g, the A-Symmetric graphite frame and V-Rotor system reduce weight without sacrificing strength. The V-Rotor design minimizes start-up inertia for instant response, while the machined aluminum V-Spool keeps the profile compact. Seven bearings (6 stainless steel ball bearings + 1 roller bearing) ensure smooth, reliable operation cast after cast.

Superior Line Control

Rocket Line Management™ and Rocket Spool Lip Design™ work together to control line flow during casting and retrieval. The braid-ready aluminum spool allows you to tie braid directly without backing, eliminating slippage. With 78 cm retrieve per turn and a 5.2:1 gear ratio, you maintain steady pressure on everything from perch to pike.
