Product Description
Shimano 10KC0 Worm Shaft (BNT2654) – OEM Level Wind Part
Restore the smooth line lay and reliable operation of your large-profile round baitcasting reel with the Shimano 10KC0 Worm Shaft. This genuine OEM replacement part is the critical component of the level wind system, responsible for guiding the line guide back and forth across the spool.
Over time, dirt, salt, and heavy use can wear down the grooves of the worm shaft, leading to inconsistent line stacking or the level wind "sticking" during retrieval. Replacing this shaft often resolves issues with erratic line carriage movement and restores the reel's original performance.
