Product Description
Hardy 1332830 P-Latch Bar - Anniversary & Lightweight Series
Product Description
Restore the reliable spool release function of your premium fly reel with the Hardy 1332830 P-Latch Bar. This genuine replacement component is the internal locking arm mechanism designed for the Hardy Anniversary Range and modern Lightweight series reels.
Located beneath the latch cover, this "P-style" bar (often manufactured from high-durability composite or polymer for smooth, low-friction operation) slides to engage the spool spindle groove. If your spool is loose or fails to lock securely onto the frame, a worn or broken latch bar is the likely culprit. Installing this factory-specification part ensures your collector-grade reel operates with the precision and security expected from Hardy.
