Product Description
Hardy 1334238 Handle Wire - Marquis Salmon, Zenith, St. Andrew
Product Description
Restore the robust winding capability of your heavy-duty fly reel with the Hardy 1334238 Handle Wire. This genuine replacement component is the heavy-duty spindle shaft designed for Hardy's larger "Salmon" class reels.
Unlike the standard trout wire, this reinforced spindle is engineered to accommodate the larger, ergonomic handle knobs found on reels built for fighting Atlantic salmon, steelhead, and saltwater species. It anchors securely into the spool face, providing a high-strength axis that withstands the torque of long, powerful retrieves. If your original handle spindle is bent or stripped, this factory-specification part is essential for maintaining the structural integrity of your reel's winding plate.

Maintenance Recommendation
The heavy loads placed on salmon reels require superior lubrication. To ensure the handle knob rotates smoothly on this wire under load, we recommend applying Deuthlon Reel Oil or Grease. Their ceramic-based formula bonds to the metal surface, creating a hydrophobic shield that prevents corrosion and reduces friction during intense battles.
