Product Description
Restore the smooth, balanced performance of your classic Abu Garcia Ambassadeur reel with the genuine 802631 Spool Axle. This precision-engineered component is a crucial part of the spool assembly, responsible for ensuring your spool spins true and free for maximum casting distance and a flawless retrieve.
Crafted from high-grade stainless steel to meet Abu Garcia's exacting specifications, this genuine replacement axle is designed to withstand the rigors of heavy use and resist corrosion. Over time, the original axle in a reel can become bent from extreme pressure, worn at the contact points, or damaged during maintenance, leading to poor casting, uneven line lay, and a "wobbly" or noisy retrieve. Replacing a compromised axle with the authentic 802631 part can dramatically improve your reel's performance, bringing it back to its original factory standard.
This is a direct-fit replacement part, ensuring seamless installation for anyone servicing their own reel. It is the core component upon which the spool and its bearings sit, making its straightness and precision critical to the overall function of the reel. Whether you are performing a complete overhaul on a vintage reel or simply replacing a damaged part, using a genuine Abu Garcia axle is essential for maintaining the integrity and performance of your investment.

While this axle fits a vast number of the classic models, it is highly recommended that you consult your reel's specific schematic (exploded diagram) to verify that 802631 is the correct part number for your exact model and year of manufacture.
