Product Description
DAM Quick Guide Tube Part #145-772 | Fits 700 & 700B Series
Ensure the smooth operation and protection of your level wind system with this genuine DAM Quick Guide Tube (Part No. 145-772). Also known as the Worm Shield or Worm Guard, this tubular component encases the worm gear, providing a smooth track for the line guide carriage to slide against while keeping dirt and debris away from the sensitive traversing mechanism.
On the Champion Series 700 and 700B reels, this tube is essential for stabilizing the line guide assembly. If the tube becomes dented, bent, or corroded, it can impede the movement of the carriage, causing the reel to bind or the line to pile up unevenly. Replacing a damaged guide tube restores the fluid, frictionless movement necessary for perfect line lay.
