Is there a US version of the Daiwa Saltes AR?
We could not find the Saltes AR 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 123 cm (48.4 in) (116MHRS).
- Weights run from 230 g (8.1 oz) on the 96MHRS to 315 g (11.1 oz) on the 116MHRS.
- Rated for lures from 10 g to 50 g (0.35–1.8 oz) across the range.
- Carbon content 89–90% depending on the model.
- Rated by Daiwa for lures 10–50 g (0.35–1.8 oz).
- 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.
