Quantum Benchmark BK8000.B2 Spinning Reel

Innovation, strength, and precision engineering define the Quantum Benchmark™ Spinning Reel series. Designed to set a new standard in spinning reel performance, the Benchmark lineup is offered in six versatile sizes capable of handling everything from light trout applications to hard-charging tarpon. At the core of each reel is a rigid aluminum frame that keeps all gears, bearings, and seals perfectly aligned under heavy load, delivering consistent performance and long-term durability. The reel body and spool are fully sealed with SEALOQ™ 6 protection, actively defending internal components from water intrusion, salt, sand, and debris, making the Benchmark an excellent choice for both freshwater and saltwater environments.

Inside, GEARTEQ™ machined gearing is cut to tight tolerances from premium aluminum and brass to deliver powerful cranking strength with a smooth, refined gear feel. This precision drivetrain pairs seamlessly with the class-leading CFX200™ Carbon Fiber Xtreme drag system, providing a wide adjustment range and impressive maximum drag pressure while maintaining a smooth, consistent curve throughout the fight. Stainless steel ball bearings further enhance retrieve smoothness and reliability, ensuring effortless operation cast after cast. Built for anglers who demand power, protection, and reliability, the Quantum Benchmark lives up to its name by delivering elite-level performance in demanding fishing conditions.
