Is there a US version of the Daiwa HERA R?

We could not find the HERA R 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 HERA R 13: 3.90 m (12'10") long, 4 pieces, 107 cm (42.1 in) folded, weighs 60 g (2.1 oz) (maker's figures).
  • 13 models from 3.60 m (11'10") to 9.60 m (31'6"), in 4- to 9-piece builds.
  • The shortest packed length is 99 cm (39.0 in) (12).
  • Weights run from 55 g (1.9 oz) on the 12 to 211 g (7.4 oz) on the 32.
  • At 64 g, the 15 is the lightest 4.50 m (14'9") rod we list (of 94 at that length).
  • Carbon content 98–99% depending on the model.
  • Japan list price ¥74,000–¥205,300, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
  • 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.
