Product Description
DAM Quick Spring (Long) Part #145-071 | Fits 700 & 800 Series
Restore the crisp mechanical action of your vintage baitcaster with this genuine DAM Quick Long Spring (Part No. 145-071). As a critical internal component of the Champion Series mechanism, this coil spring provides the necessary tension for the reel’s clutch or yoke assembly, ensuring reliable engagement and disengagement during casting and retrieval.
Over decades of use, original springs can suffer from fatigue, compression set, or corrosion, leading to sluggish performance or failure to return parts to their neutral position. Installing this precise factory-spec replacement ensures your classic German reel operates with the responsiveness it had when it left the factory.
