Shimano Kairiki 8+ Braid 8-Strand Braided Line with S-EBT Technology

The Shimano Kairiki 8+ Braid is a technically advanced 8-strand braided line made from ultra-soft Izanas SF600 fibers. Thanks to its round profile and smooth surface, it enables precise and long-distance casts while offering high sensitivity and minimal noise as it passes through the rod guides.

The special S-EBT braiding technique (Shimano Enhanced Body Technology) creates a uniform and compact structure. The eight carrier strands are tightly woven under consistent multi-angle tension, resulting in a reduced diameter and optimized surface texture. The outcome is controlled line flow and improved handling across various fishing techniques.

Kairiki 8+ is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater use, delivering reliable performance when jigging for perch, pike, or seabass. The silicone coating enhances resistance to water and dirt, further supporting the lines durability and knot strength.

Available in multiple diameters and colorssuch as Yellow, Mantis Green, Multi, and Steel GreyKairiki 8+ adapts well to different visibility conditions and angler preferences. It offers a balanced combination of breaking strength, casting performance, and surface smoothness for diverse fishing scenarios.

Kairiki 8 Braid 8-Strand Braided Line with VT Construction

The Kairiki 8 Braid is a technical 8-strand braided line with a tightly woven VT construction. The dense weave results in a smooth surface and reduced diameter. The line is suitable for both freshwater and saltwater use and offers good casting performance with reduced noise when passing through the rod guides.

Compared to many other 8-strand lines, the Kairiki 8 Braid stands out with its round profile and smooth structure. This supports precise and long-distance casts as well as increased sensitivity while fishing. The line is available in various diameters and in Yellow, Mantis Green, Multi, and Steel Grey colors.

The VT construction combines eight carrier strands under consistent multi-angle tension. This creates a compact and round braid where each strand lies tightly together. This structure results in a reduced diameter, smooth surface, and improved transmission of feedback during the fight.
