Product Description
Mitchell 82596 Pinion Gear
Restore the legendary smoothness and precision of your classic Mitchell spinning reel with the genuine Mitchell 82596 Pinion Gear. This critical internal component works in conjunction with your reel's main gear to transmit power from the handle to the rotor and spool, dictating the retrieve ratio and overall feel of your reel. A worn or damaged pinion gear can lead to rough winding, skipping, excessive play, or even a complete breakdown of your reel's retrieve mechanism.
The Mitchell 82596 Pinion Gear is a brand-new, authentic replacement part, manufactured to Mitchell's original specifications. It features the "new style" flat design, which is crucial for proper engagement with compatible main gears and spool gears. If your older Mitchell reel has a beveled gear setup, this part will not be interchangeable. Always ensure you match the gear style to maintain optimal performance.
By replacing your worn pinion gear with this high-quality Mitchell 82596, you'll eliminate grinding, restore tight tolerances, and bring back the consistent, reliable operation that Mitchell reels are renowned for. It's an essential part for extending the life of your cherished vintage reel and ensuring countless more memorable fishing trips.

Fit Like a Designer Glove - Part 2
I recently uncovered my old Mitchell 300 reel that was given to me from grandfather when I was a child. I forgot I kept it. I removed the plate and discovered several gears had missing teeth. I performed a google search and discovered Mike's Reel Repair. I debated to buy a new Mitchell 300 (probably new ones are not made as well, like anything else that someone buys new today), but this reel has sentimental value to me. Therefore I decided to repair it. I was skeptical I would get it to work again. I was also wondering if I was going to receive plastic gears as substitute replacements. I was surprised and excited, as all the gears appeared to be OEM and were made of metal. Conclusion: The gear fit perfectly and once greased, it spun like the first day I bought it. I would most definitely due business with them again. I actually have an old Mitchell 320 reel that I bought when I was child that does not work. If they supply me the parts, I may make this a winter project. George from New York State
