Product Description
Crafted in the storied Hardy tradition, this authentic replacement part is essential for maintaining the integrity and flawless performance of your reel. The pillar is meticulously machined from high-quality nickel silver, a material synonymous with classic, high-end tackle. Its polished finish not only provides a distinguished, warm aesthetic but also offers exceptional durability and corrosion resistance, ensuring it can withstand the rigors of a lifetime on the water.
The line guard pillar is a critical structural component of the reel's frame.
