Product Description
DAM Quick 100-135 Crank Nut
Secure Your Handle for Heavy-Duty Performance
Ensure your connection to the fish remains solid with the DAM Quick 100-135 Crank Nut. This vital fastener is responsible for securing the handle assembly to the main drive gear shaft. Designed for the larger, heavy-duty "Super" and "Standard" series of DAM Quick reels, this nut must withstand the significant torque generated when cranking against a heavy load.
On vintage saltwater or heavy freshwater reels, the crank nut is susceptible to being lost during transport or stripped due to overtightening. Without this component, the handle cannot drive the gears, rendering the reel inoperable. Replace your missing or damaged nut with this genuine-specification part to restore the structural integrity and reliability of your classic German-engineered reel.
