Is there a US version of the Daiwa Purelist?
We could not find the Purelist 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 Purelist 53UL·W: 1.60 m (5'3") long, 2 pieces, 83 cm (32.7 in) folded, weighs 84 g (3.0 oz), lure weight 1.5–7 g (0.05–0.25 oz), PE line #0.3–0.6, nylon 2–6 lb (maker's figures).
- 12 models from 1.12 m (3'8") to 2.24 m (7'4"), all 2-piece.
- The shortest packed length is 59 cm (23.2 in) (38ULB·W).
- Weights run from 65 g (2.3 oz) on the 38ULB·W to 113 g (4.0 oz) on the 74ML·W.
- At 65 g, the 38ULB·W is the lightest 1.12 m (3'8") rod we list (of 5 at that length).
- Rated for lures from 1 g to 18 g (0.04–0.63 oz) across the range.
- PE line rating 0.2–1.
- Carbon content 81–98% depending on the model.
- Japan list price ¥19,900–¥24,300, which is in the bottom quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for lures 1–18 g (0.04–0.63 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.
