Product Description
DAM QUICK 102-520 - Drive Gear, 245
Restore the cranking power of your vintage reel with this genuine DAM Quick Drive Gear.
The DAM Quick 102-520 Drive Gear (also known as the Main Gear or Drive Wheel) is the heart of the DAM Quick 245 spinning reel. This main drive component connects the handle assembly to the pinion gear, converting your cranking motion into the rotational speed of the rotor. As the primary torque-bearing part of the reel, the drive gear is subject to significant stress over decades of use.
If your reel feels "geary," suffers from skipped teeth, or has developed excessive play in the handle, a worn drive gear is often the cause. Manufactured to the precise tolerances of classic German engineering, this replacement gear ensures correct mesh alignment and restores the smooth, powerful retrieve that the Quick 245 is known for.
