The shimano star drag upgrade (60mm 6-Arm Series) from Gomexus is engineered for tournament bass anglers and BFS finesse enthusiasts seeking lightning-fast drag tuning. CNC-machined from ultralight aircraft-grade aluminum and weighing an astonishingly light 5.4g, this extended 6-arm star drag allows effortless one-finger fine-tuning while maintaining a solid palm grip on Shimano low-profile baitcasting reels.
Key Features & Performance Upgrades
- Instant One-Handed Drag Operation: As a performance-engineered shimano star drag, the innovative 6-arm layout with 19mm extended arm reach allows your index finger to flick and adjust drag tension instantaneously without taking your hand off the reel handle.
- 5.4g Ultralight Aerospace Aluminum: Precision milled from high-tensile aero aluminum alloy, adding extreme torsional rigidity while keeping overall spool-start inertia and BFS reel weight to an absolute minimum.
- 60mm Wide Ergonomic Profile: The enlarged hexagonal footprint ensures positive finger contact in all directions, making micro-drag adjustments seamless during high-pressure battles with hard-charging bass and inshore gamefish.
- Zero-Interference Spacing Kit Included: Packaged with 2 dedicated tuning washers (0.3mm and 1.0mm thickness) to guarantee smooth clearance and prevent rubbing when installed alongside curved carbon or aluminum handles.
- Direct Drop-In Fitment: Designed to fit directly onto the drive shafts of popular Shimano freshwater baitcasting platforms including Curado DC/BFS/K, Metanium MGL/DC, SLX DC/MGL, Calcutta Conquest, and Antares.

Much better than the original on the slx dc
It is now easier to adjust the drag with one hand. There is no rattling and it looks cool. Although the arm is long, the thread will not get caught or get in the way. I’m glad I bought it. I’ll check the durability now.
The construction on the back is cheap and flimsy, but considering the price and appearance, I think it’s totally worth it. I’ve been wearing it on my 16 Metanium for one season, and it doesn’t seem to have any problems with durability.
Great quality! Fits a Shimano 10 scorpion of 1000 size
I bought this star drag for my Shimano slx dc. Thing looks sick adding more of that beautiful Shimano blue to it. On the other hand there’s a little wobble that I can’t get to go away even after trying both of the washers or spacers they sent. My biggest gripe is that if I have my drag super tight hook a monster and want to give a little drag after my hookset I have no way in knowing he’s taking drag because it’s no longer audible. The adjustments click but when drag is actively being pulled it does not and I hate that. HEY LOOKS GREAT THOUGH
