Product Description
DAM Quick 100-063 Bail Spring
Revive the Automatic Bail Return on Your Classic Reel
Ensure the swift, reliable action of your vintage spinning reel with the DAM Quick 100-063 Bail Spring. This precision-wound torsion spring is the mechanical heart of the bail assembly for the larger "Super" series of DAM Quick reels. It provides the necessary torque to snap the bail wire from the open casting position back to the closed retrieval position the moment the handle is turned.
On vintage reels like the Quick 270 and 275, the bail spring is a common wear item. Decades of tension, combined with exposure to moisture, can cause these springs to lose their strength (temper) or snap due to fatigue. A functioning bail spring is critical for efficient fishing, preventing the need to manually flip the bail after every cast. Restore the legendary West German engineering of your reel with this genuine-specification replacement part.
