Product Description
Penn 1238994 O-Ring (120-30SLD): A Vital Component for Peak Reel Performance
The Penn 1238994 O-Ring, also identified by the schematic part number 120-30SLD, is a crucial genuine replacement part designed to maintain the integrity and smooth operation of specific Penn Squall Lever Drag conventional fishing reels. This durable O-ring plays a key role in ensuring your reel functions at its best, providing a reliable seal against the elements and internal contaminants.
Function and Placement
This essential O-ring is precisely engineered to fit on the gear stud of compatible Penn reels. Its primary function is to create a secure seal, preventing water, salt, and debris from entering the gear case. This protective barrier is vital for safeguarding the internal gearing and lubrication from corrosion and wear, which can significantly impact the reel's performance and lifespan. By maintaining a clean and properly lubricated environment within the reel, the 1238994 O-ring ensures the gearing operates smoothly and efficiently, cast after cast.
Precision Engineering and Durability
As a genuine Penn replacement part, the 1238994 O-ring is manufactured to the highest standards of quality and precision. While the exact material composition is not publicly specified by the manufacturer, it is crafted from a high-quality, resilient elastomer designed to withstand the harsh marine environment. This ensures its longevity and ability to maintain a proper seal despite repeated use and exposure to saltwater.
Compatible Models
The Penn 1238994 O-Ring (120-30SLD) is confirmed to be a direct replacement part for the following Penn Squall Lever Drag (SQL) conventional reels:
-
Penn Squall SQL30LD
-
Penn Squall SQL40LD
It is important to note that while the "30SLD" designation in the schematic part number suggests a family of parts, based on available schematics, this specific O-ring is not listed as a component for the newer Penn Squall II (SQLII) Lever Drag series reels (e.g., SQLII30LD, SQLII40LD). Reel owners should always consult their reel's specific schematic to ensure part compatibility before ordering.
By replacing a worn or damaged O-ring with the genuine Penn 1238994, anglers can restore their reel's protective seals, ensuring continued high performance and reliability on the water.
