Mitchell 84771 Bail Wire Assembly
Product ID: 84771 Brand: Mitchell
Restore Your Vintage Graphite Reel
Bring your Mitchell spinning reel back to optimal working condition with the Mitchell 84771 Bail Wire. This genuine replacement part is designed specifically for the Mitchell 1060G model. A bent or warped bail wire is a frequent cause of line management issues, including friction during retrieval and failure of the bail to flip automatically. Replacing this component ensures your reel continues to offer the smooth casting and reliable line lay it was built for.

Installation & Maintenance Recommendation
Replacing the bail wire is the ideal time to service the entire bail mechanism to ensure longevity. We recommend cleaning the rotor arms and pivot points before installation.
Recommended Lubrication: For superior performance and protection against wear, we recommend Deuthlon lubricants:
-
Deuthlon Semi-Fluid Grease: Apply to the internal bail spring and trip lever. This high-quality grease prevents corrosion and ensures a crisp, reliable snap.
-
Deuthlon Cast Lube (Ceramic): Apply a drop to the line roller bushing and bail hinge screws to reduce friction and keep the mechanism moving freely.

Tech Tip: When installing, ensure the bail wire is not twisted. It should sit flush against the bail arm and line roller mount without being forced. If it requires force to align, the wire may be bent or the rotor arms may need adjustment.
