| After a long day of fishing off
the Florida Coast testing products, a Penn Engineer and Penn’s
CEO were engaged in conversation. For years, reel companies mimicked
Otto Henze’s original patent of using a bridgeplate to mount
the gear stud and main gear. At the time this was innovation and creativity
at its finest. However, with the great advances in materials and machining
capabilities, the question was posed, why were companies using decade
old technology when a better, stronger, and more reliable design could
be used? A new, revolutionary concept was quickly sketched on the
back of a napkin and a new Patent was born. From this innovative and
revolutionary patent, Penn is proud to introduce a truly unique reel
design, an Integrated Side Plate. This integrated Side Plate (ISP)
serves as the basis for a new series of reels which is introduced
over the next few pages. But before its introduction, a bit more discussion
of the Integrated Side Plate design is warranted. |

INNOVATION
Integrated Side
Plate,
the
new, unique,
and patented
d e s i g n
in t e g r at e s
right side plate

into one rigid
assembly. This
innovation enables
the reels to achieve super-high drag
capabilities with fewer parts than a
traditional reel. Crank up the drag
and the machined side plate absorbs
any load you can dish out, all without
causing any binding to the main and
pinion gear. Gears, pinions, and handle
maintain perfect alignment no matter
how heavy the load.
Gear of a competitor’s Multi-Cam $700 Lever Drag Reel. When we went to measure the hardness,
they were so soft we couldn’t even measure it on the same scale as our gear.
Gear of a competitor’s Star Drag Reel. Just as soft as the $700 reel’s gear and 40%
smaller in thickness than our gear. This just doesn’t cut it at Penn.
Gear of the Penn ReelTorque. Stainless Steel, and an incredible amount of engagement.
Don’t be fooled by claims of smoother gears. Ours feel smooth with great strength.
Penn Engineering
As innovative and forward-thinking as the Integrated Side Plate Design concept
and patent is, incorporating this design into a useful and marketable product
took significant strides and development by the Penn Engineering Department.
Penn Engineers are an integral component and driving force behind the success
and viability of Penn products.
DESIGN
Traditional bridge designs do not lend themselves
favorably to high-speed gearing as the increased
load tends to distort and misalign the gear
stud. Some companies “manufactured” slop into
their gear studs, allowing the gear stud to semi-
float and maintain some alignment, or is that
misalignment, with the pinion as load and pressure
increased. With the ISP design, high-speed gears
and pinions are unaffected by force and load,
thereby maintaining perfect alignment with the
pinion regardless of the pressures exerted on the
reel. The patented Integrated Side Plate design
allows for an oversized, super high-speed gear for
a unique combination of power and speed.
When you have the fish of a lifetime hooked up, what gear would you feel more comfortable
with? The Penn ISP Engineered design allows for a larger gear engagement with the pinion,
ensuring unmatched cranking power.
The first fish caught on the new Penn Torque, a 100-plus lb Spinner Shark caught
off the coast of Florida. Penn Pro Staff, Greg Bogdan, commented after cranking
in a few Spinner Sharks between 80 and 150-pounds, the Penn Torque was the most
versatile and powerful reel he has ever fished with. This reel has unbelievable torque,
cranking power and drag capabilities. Wonder where we got the idea for the name?
Borrowing the “look” of another iconic Penn
reel, the Penn International, the revolutionary
TORQUE incorporates an innovative design to
produce the strongest, most reliable star drag
reel on the market. a full metal body, coupled
with an oversized Stainless Gear and power
handle produce incredible cranking power
and performance. With a disengaging pinion,
castable free spool, and unlimited power, the
Penn TORQUE is an ideal reel for jigging (West-
Coast Yo-Yoing), freelining baits, and just about
anything else you care to try. And yes, it will
swim a jig better than anything out there.
1 New and Patented Integrated Side Plate (ISP) Design. This unique design incorporates
the bridge into a one-piece, fully machined aluminum side plate for superior strength and rigidity.
2 Stainless Steel gear Sleeve and Gear Stud. The design incorporates the use of stainless
Steel wherever there are strong forces at play. A typical star drag reel may use brass or bronze.
3 International Style Double Dog Ratchet System. The reel incorporates the tried and true
double dog ratchet system found in Penn’s International Big Game reels. The double dogs serve
as a back-up to a powerful one-way roller bearing.
4 Stainless Steel Reel Seat. Stainless Steel reel seat for strength and rigidity.
5 Hardened Stainless Steel Pinion Gear. Hardened Pinion Gear for added strength and
superior wear resistance.
6 Stainless Steel Eccentric Lever. The eccentric lever has been made of stainless steel
to provide superior strength when engaging the reel into gear under load with a fish taking line from the reel.
7 Fully Disengaging Pinion Gear. The Hardened Stainless Steel Pinion Gear disengages
for superior casting ability.

Sailfish
100 lb Sailfish
While trolling for large Tuna in Cabo, Talyor Walker encountered this sail that came up and
ate a Kona Klone. It then spit it out and came back and ate a free lined green mackeral.
Taylor whooped its butt in 25 minutes on a International 12LT, estimated weight 100lbs.
and released
163 lb Swordfish
We currently use Penn reels now and wanted to try out the newer two speed models.
While swordfishing we normally use 80 class tackle but this night we decided to try
the new reels and dropped a bait down on a 50vsw. With three 80's and one 50 out we
started the drift. Of course the bait on the 50 would get hit. The fish took the
bait and swam underneath the boat while I came tight on it. The fight was now on
and the fish stayed about a hundred feet below the boat. Thinking we had a small
fish on it quicky changed my mind when 45 minutes into the fight the fish took off
300 yards like it was nothing. This is why Penn reels are great.
The line came off extremely smooth and we were able to repeat this process
three more times. After just over two hours we had the fish boatside.
The next afternoon the fish weighed in at 163 pounds. I was extremely
impressed with the new reels!These reels are very smooth and have a wonderful
drag system. I want to thank you for creating a very dependable product over
the past several years.
