Product Description
Mitchell 81934 Rotor – Genuine Replacement for 441 & 441A Match Series
Optimize the high-speed, left-hand performance of your vintage angling gear with the Mitchell 81934 Rotor. This authentic replacement part is specifically engineered for the Mitchell 441 and its high-speed "Match" variants. As a left-hand retrieve rotor (for reels cranked with the right hand), this component is precision-balanced to accommodate the rapid rotational forces of the 400-series high-speed gear train.
The 81934 rotor acts as the housing for the bail assembly and is responsible for maintaining a consistent, level line lay. Replacing a damaged or out-of-balance rotor is essential for eliminating handle vibration and ensuring the "silk-smooth" retrieve that defines the Mitchell Match series.

The Mitchell 81934 rotor is precision-manufactured for the left-hand retrieve high-speed chassis. It is a verified fit for:
-
Mitchell 441 (High-speed, Left-hand retrieve)
-
Mitchell 441A

Mitchell 441 Match (Autobail/Otomatic variants)
Technical Insight: The 441 series often features the specialized automatic bail trip (Otomatic) system. The 81934 rotor contains the specific internal geometry required to house these trip levers. Because this is a left-hand retrieve part, it is not compatible with right-hand retrieve models like the 440 or 410.

Professional Maintenance & Lubrication
High-speed match reels require superior lubrication to ensure the bail snaps shut instantly and the rotor spins without friction-related drag.
-
Bail & Trip Mechanism: Apply Deuthlon Reel Oil to the bail arm pivot screws and the internal kick-lever. This ultra-low viscosity lubricant ensures the high-speed bail trip remains responsive and prevents the "sticking" common with heavier, aged oils.
-
Main Shaft Interface: During installation, apply a light coat of Deuthlon Reel Grease to the pinion threads and the rotor nut. Its specialized "Dust-Shield" formula protects the rotor seat from moisture and grit, ensuring the assembly remains perfectly balanced and easy to remove for future servicing.
Why Choose Genuine Mitchell 81934?
A genuine Mitchell 81934 rotor is factory-weighted to synchronize with the high-speed oscillation of the 441 chassis. Using an incorrect or aftermarket rotor can lead to severe vibration and improper line winding. Replacing your rotor with this original factory part ensures that the bail trip ramp aligns perfectly with the housing, preserving the mechanical integrity and collector value of your high-speed Match reel.
