Maintenance & Installation
To ensure the smoothest operation and prevent future seizing of frame screws, we recommend professional-grade lubrication during installation.
-
Thread Protection: Apply a small amount of Deuthlon Reel Grease to the threads before installation to provide a waterproof barrier and prevent galvanic corrosion.
-
Moving Parts: For reels with rotating line guards, a drop of Deuthlon Reel Oil on the pillar interface will ensure friction-free performance and superior startup inertia.
Why Choose Genuine Hardy Parts?
Hardy reels are precision instruments. Using aftermarket hardware can lead to stripped threads or improper alignment of the line guard, which can ultimately damage expensive fly lines. The 1333298 screw provides the exact pitch and head-seat diameter required for a flush, secure fit.
