Product Description
DAM Quick 100-564 Connecting Piece – Model 550 Replacement Part
Product Overview
Ensure the precise oscillation of your vintage surf reel with this genuine DAM Quick 100-564 Connecting Piece. Specifically engineered for the DAM Quick 550, this critical component (often referred to as the oscillation slider or traverse block) serves as the vital link between the main drive axle and the oscillation system. It converts the rotary motion of the drive gear into the linear up-and-down movement of the spool, ensuring perfect line lay.
If your reel is experiencing "slop" at the top or bottom of the spool stroke, or if the shaft is disconnected from the drive train, a worn or broken connecting piece is often the culprit. Replace it to restore the tight, reliable German engineering that defines the DAM Quick 550.
