Product Description
DAM Quick Brake Weight (Heavy) Part #145-181 | Fits 700 & 800 Series
Gain maximum control over your casts with this genuine DAM Quick Brake Weight, Heavy (Part No. 145-181). Designed for the centrifugal braking system of the Champion Series, these heavier brake blocks (shoes) provide increased friction against the brake ring, offering superior spool management during high-torque situations.
The "Heavy" weight classification is specifically engineered for casting heavy lures, fishing in windy conditions, or for anglers who prefer a more disciplined spool to prevent "birds nests" and backlashes. Replacing worn or missing weights with these factory-specified heavy variants ensures your vintage German reel handles exactly how you need it to, slowing the spool effectively at the start of the cast.
