Maintenance & Lubrication
To ensure the maximum lifespan of your B-1280 bearing and to prevent corrosion from saltwater intrusion, proper lubrication is essential.
-
For High-Speed Spool Bearings: We recommend Deuthlon Reel Oil. Its ultra-low viscosity ensures maximum casting distance and effortless spool rotation.
-
For Load-Bearing/Internal Gears: We recommend Deuthlon Reel Grease. This provides a water-resistant barrier that protects the stainless steel casing and internal races from pitting and wear under heavy pressure.
