Product Description
DAM Quick 101-199 Drive Gear – Genuine OEM Replacement
Revitalize the cranking power and smooth operation of your classic spinning reel with the DAM Quick 101-199 Drive Gear. This genuine OEM component serves as the main engine for specific vintage DAM Quick models. As the primary point of contact between your handle and the reel's internal mechanism, this precision-cut gear is responsible for the high-torque, reliable retrieve that these German-engineered reels are known for.
If your reel feels "loose," exhibits gear slippage, or makes a grinding sound during retrieval, the teeth on the drive gear may be worn or damaged. Installing this authentic replacement restores the tight tolerances and mechanical efficiency required for smooth operation.

Why Choose Genuine DAM Quick Parts?
The 101-199 Drive Gear is crucial for maintaining the "worm-drive" feel that collectors adore. Aftermarket gears often lack the specific tooth pitch and material hardness of the original German components. By using genuine OEM parts, you ensure your vintage reel maintains its value and continues to perform flawlessly for years to come.
