Smallest JDM Twin Power sizes vs US TP2500FE
Japanese values are as printed in Shimano Japan's table; US values are as printed in Shimano North America's table. Line capacity is printed in different units (Japan: gō or lb × metres; US: lb × yards), so we show both as printed and do not convert. The US table does not print spool or handle size, so those cells are marked Not confirmed.
