Product Description
DAM Quick 100-018 Line Guide / Roller
Protect Your Line and Ensure Smooth Retrieval
Maximize the performance of your vintage spinning reel with the DAM Quick 100-018 Line Guide (commonly referred to as the Line Roller). This essential component is the primary contact point between your fishing line and the reel during retrieval. Positioned on the bail arm, it is designed to guide the line evenly onto the spool while minimizing friction and line twist.
Over years of heavy use, original line guides can develop grooves, nicks, or rough spots from the constant abrasive action of monofilament or braided lines. These imperfections can fray your line, leading to unexpected break-offs when fighting a fish. Replacing a worn roller with this genuine-specification part restores the smooth, effortless winding characteristic of DAM Quick reels and significantly extends the life of your fishing line.
