4500 ss versus 450 ss simple comparison.

[gstours]

I am a Shimano guy for the smaller spinners.  Have many others n, never had a penn spinner.  🤷‍♂️So of course wondered what the different features are between the 4500 and the 450 series.🤦‍♀️
   This is a brief description ,  the 4500 has an anti reverse bearing instead of a dog, the drag uses one large cf fiber washer machine in front of the spool. There is no lever for no anti reverse if you wanna feed line out as in bobber fishing w current.
  The 450 uses 3 small cf washers and a typical keyed/eared steel washer drag. Has anti reverse lever and a dog system.  The bail arms  attachment seem more beefy hence heavyer.
  The dog has the usual back play in the crank arm in the 450 and the 4500 w the ar bearing has no slop in the crank arm back play.
   I'm hoping that this information may be helpful to others.  I'm just saying.💁‍♂️
