Not sure, but the 40 initially came out with a plastic rotor.

The 60 & higher are metal.  So this may also be a consideration.

In salt water fishing conditions (or even fresh with any spinner) the rotor is one of the parts that continually keep moving.

Having said that, the Lethals are a good reel by Fin-Nor.

Should do what you are expecting capably.
