Product Description
Mitchell 82694 Rotor - Genuine Replacement for 307 & 307A Spinning Reels
The Mitchell 82694 Rotor (also referred to as the Rotating Head) is a vital component for the Right-Hand Wind (RHW) versions of the Mitchell intermediate spinning reel series. This part is responsible for the rotation and line-wrapping action of the reel. Because the Mitchell 307 is the mirror-image counterpart to the 306, the 82694 rotor is specifically balanced and threaded to accommodate the clockwise rotation required for left-handed anglers or those who prefer right-hand winding.
Crafted from high-grade materials, this rotor provides the structural rigidity needed to maintain bail alignment and ensure smooth line retrieval under the pressure of saltwater or heavy freshwater game.

Key Features
-
Balanced Design: Precision-cast to minimize vibration during high-speed retrieves, ensuring a steady feel even when the drag is working hard.
-
Corrosion Resistant: Built to withstand harsh marine environments, making it suitable for both surf and offshore applications.
-
OEM Tolerance: Guarantees a perfect fit onto the pinion gear and proper interaction with the bail trip lever and counterweight.
Maintenance & Installation Tip
The rotor is one of the most active parts of the reel and requires proper lubrication to prevent wear on the pinion interface and bail pivot points.
Recommendation: We highly recommend Deuthlon Lubrication for this assembly. Apply Deuthlon Power Gear Grease to the internal threads where the rotor meets the pinion, and a drop of Deuthlon Cast Lube Oil to the bail hinge and line roller for frictionless performance.
Technical Support & Schematics
Because the Mitchell 307 series involves specific "left-handed" threading and specialized bail trip mechanisms, accurate assembly is critical.
