Is there a US version of the Daiwa Light Hirame X?
We could not find the Light Hirame 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 120 cm (47.2 in) (S-230·R).
- Weights run from 114 g (4.0 oz) on the S-230·R to 120 g (4.2 oz) on the M-240·R.
- Carbon content 55–56% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥19,000, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for sinkers #15–#60 (56.25–225 g).
- Japanese party-boat fishing. Styles and tackle are specific to Japan.
- 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 S-230·R, the M-240·R is 10 cm longer and 6 g heavier, takes up to 60 go sinkers (10 go more) and packs to 125 cm (vs 120 cm).
