Penn Battle IV Spinning Reel 1000 221g 4.9kg 120cm 5.2:1

Penn Battle IV 1000 — Ultra-Light Saltwater Workhorse

The Penn Battle IV 1000 delivers full-metal durability and waterproof protection in an ultra-compact 221 g package built for finesse inshore and light saltwater fishing.

CNC Gear Technology and HT-100 Carbon Fibre Drag

Proprietary CNC Gear machining ensures precision meshing under load, while HT-100 carbon fibre drag washers deliver smooth, reliable stopping power up to 4.9 kg. The 5+1 sealed stainless steel ball bearing system keeps the retrieve silky even after saltwater exposure.

Hydro Armor Sealing for Harsh Conditions

The Hydro Armor system seals critical internal components against water intrusion, protecting gears and bearings from corrosion when surf, spray, or rain are part of the day. The full metal body and sideplate add structural rigidity that prevents flex during hard fights.
