Is there a US version of the Daiwa Chining X?

We could not find the Chining X by name in Daiwa’s 2026-27 US catalog (printed, July 2026), so the sizes and specs on this page are the Japan-market ones. Sellers who ship from Japan are the usual source for this exact model in the US; a US dealer may still carry a related model under a different name.

About this item

What the maker's numbers say about this model:

  • The shortest packed length is 119 cm (46.9 in) (76L).
  • Weights run from 122 g (4.3 oz) on the 76L to 125 g (4.4 oz) on the 710ML.
  • Rated for lures from 2 g to 18 g (0.07–0.63 oz) across the range.
  • PE line rating 0.2–1.
  • Carbon content 88–91% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥13,500–¥15,100, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • Rated by Daiwa for lures 2–18 g (0.07–0.63 oz), PE line #0.2–#1.
  • Sizes marked go (号) are the Japanese standard. For sinkers one go is exactly 3.75 g, so we convert it; for line it is a diameter class rather than a breaking strain, so we print the maker's number as published.
  • Specs are Daiwa's published figures; conversions to imperial are ours.

How the sizes differ

  • Compared with the 76L, the 76ML is the same length and the same weight, takes up to 18 g lures (6 g more) and costs ¥600 more in Japan.
  • Compared with the 76ML, the 710ML is 10 cm longer and 3 g heavier, packs to 124 cm (vs 119 cm) and costs ¥1,000 more in Japan.
