Product Description
DAM Quick 100-065 Bail Spring
Restore the Automatic Snap to Your Reel
Bring the precise mechanical action back to your vintage fishing setup with the DAM Quick 100-065 Bail Spring. This essential torsion spring is the driving force behind the bail return system on select classic DAM Quick models. It is responsible for flipping the bail wire from the casting position back to the retrieval mode instantly when the handle is engaged.
Bail springs are among the most heavily stressed components in any spinning reel. Over time, metal fatigue can cause the spring to lose tension or snap, forcing you to manually close the bail after every cast. Installing this genuine-specification replacement ensures your reel operates smoothly and reliably, maintaining the high-performance standards of German engineering.
