Is there a US version of the Daiwa Saltiga J Expedition?
We could not find the Saltiga J Expedition 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 89 cm (35.0 in) (50S-6).
- Weights run from 210 g (7.4 oz) on the 56S-4 to 235 g (8.3 oz) on the 50S-6.
- PE line rating 4–6.
- 71% carbon.
- Japan list price ¥64,500, which is in the top quarter (by Japan list price) of the 1440 rod series we list.
- Rated by Daiwa for PE line #4–#6.
- 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 50S-6, the 56S-4 is 16 cm longer and 25 g lighter and takes up to 300 g heads/jigs (100 g less).
