10MFC CLICK PIN (B) (TGT2061, BNT5316 & RD 8787)

Product Description

Shimano 10MFC Click Pin (B) | TGT2061, BNT5316 & RD 8787

The Shimano 10MFC Click Pin (B) is a precision-engineered internal component that provides the audible "clicking" feedback and tactile resistance for various adjustment systems on Shimano reels. Depending on the reel model, this pin is typically used in the star drag assembly, the spool clicker, or the drag knob to ensure precise, incremental settings.

The 10MFC is designed to interface with a click gear or notched plate. It is usually spring-loaded (working with a small coil spring) to maintain constant pressure. If your star drag or spool clicker has gone "silent" or feels mushy without distinct steps, this pin is likely worn, stuck, or lost.

Maintenance & Lubrication Recommendation

Because the Click Pin (B) is constantly vibrating against a metal click gear, it requires high-performance lubrication to prevent the tip from wearing down. We recommend Deuthlon Lubricants:

• For the Pin Tip: Apply a small dab of Deuthlon Reel Gear Grease. Its high-tack formula stays on the pin even during rapid drag adjustments, ensuring the click remains crisp and preventing the pin from grinding down the click gear.

• For the Pin Housing/Hole: A drop of Deuthlon Power Cast Oil inside the hole where the pin and spring sit will prevent salt crystallization and ensure the pin doesn't become "stuck" in the depressed position.

Why Choose Genuine Shimano 10MFC?

• Tension Consistency: Specifically weighted and sized to provide the exact "click" frequency intended by Shimano engineers.

• Hardness Match: Machined to a specific hardness that is softer than the click gear it hits, ensuring that the inexpensive pin wears out before the expensive gear does.

• Corrosion Resistance: High-nickel content prevents the pin from rusting into its housing, a common cause of drag adjustment failure.
