Product Description
Hardy 1333833 Check Spring Stud - St. Andrew
Product Description
Secure the heart of your reel’s check mechanism with the Hardy 1333833 Check Spring Stud. This genuine replacement component is precision-machined from solid brass to meet the robust specifications of the Hardy St. Andrew—the largest reel in the classic Lightweight series.
As the anchor point for the check spring, this stud endures constant tension and vibration during line retrieval and drag engagement. Its brass construction ensures a corrosion-resistant, low-friction mount that preserves the tension and longevity of the spring itself. Whether you are performing a complete restoration or a simple field repair, this part is essential for maintaining the reliable "click" and braking power of your heavy-duty vintage reel.
Compatibility
This part is custom-engineered for the following Hardy Lightweight series model:
-
Hardy St. Andrew (4 1/8" Diameter)
Note: This stud is larger than the standard spring studs found on smaller Lightweight models (like the Flyweight or LRH).
