Product Description
DAM Quick Pinion Gear Part #145-507 | Fits 700 & 800 Series
Restore the drive train precision of your vintage baitcaster with this genuine DAM Quick Pinion Gear (Part No. 145-507). Often referred to simply as the spool gear, this critical component meshes with the main drive gear to transfer cranking power directly to the spool, enabling high-speed retrieval and powerful torque.
On the Champion Series 700 and 800 reels, the pinion gear takes the brunt of the load during the retrieve. Worn or chipped teeth can lead to a "rough" or "grinding" feel, slippage, or uneven spool rotation. Replacing this gear with a factory-spec part is essential for returning your classic German-engineered reel to its original smoothness and reliability.

Schematics & Installation References
To identify the correct placement of the pinion gear within the spool shaft assembly, please consult the specific PDF schematics for your model at www.reelschematic.com.
Note: Gear sets (main and pinion) often wear together. If your main gear is heavily worn, replacing only the pinion may result in continued noise. Inspect both gears for optimal results.
