Product Description
DAM Quick 100-383 Handle
Complete the Restoration of Your Microlite Masterpiece
Regain the delicate touch and precision control of your vintage ultra-light setup with the DAM Quick 100-383 Handle. This component is the dedicated crank handle assembly specifically engineered for the DAM Quick 110 Microlite. As the smallest reel in the classic series, the 110 requires a handle that is perfectly balanced to its diminutive frame to ensure smooth rotation without wobble.
For collectors and anglers alike, the handle is often the most vulnerable part of a vintage reel. It is easily lost during transport, bent from improper storage, or the knob may degrade over decades. Replacing a missing or damaged handle with this genuine-specification part restores the ergonomic geometry and mechanical function of your reel, allowing you to finesse light lines for trout and panfish just as the original designers intended.
