Product Description
Hardy 1380356 Check Spring - St. Andrew, Zenith, Husky
Product Description
Restore the commanding stopping power of your heavy-duty vintage reel with the Hardy 1380356 Check Spring. This genuine replacement component is forged from high-grade tempered Spring Steel, designed to meet the rigorous demands of the largest reels in the Lightweight and Heavyweight series.
Unlike the standard springs found in smaller trout reels, this heavy-duty "U" shaped spring is engineered to provide increased resistance against the pawl. It is the critical engine behind the powerful drag necessary for turning salmon, steelhead, and large saltwater species. Installing this fresh, factory-specification spring ensures your reel delivers the strong, reliable "Hardy click" and braking pressure required for big game angling.
