Product Description
Fin-Nor LF070-01 Link Spring (SA80W)
The Fin-Nor LF070-01 Link Spring is a high-performance internal component specifically engineered for the Fin-Nor Santiago big game series. This spring plays a critical role in the linkage system of the reel's lever drag mechanism, ensuring the transition between "Free," "Strike," and "Full" drag settings is snappy, precise, and secure.
Built to handle the immense pressures of offshore big-game fishing, this spring maintains the mechanical tension required to keep the drag lever from slipping under the vibration of a boat engine or the violent runs of pelagic species like Blue Marlin and Tuna.

Key Features
-
Heavy-Duty Tension: Restores the factory-fresh "detent" feel to the drag lever, preventing accidental shifts during high-speed trolling.
-
Saltwater Integrity: Constructed from premium stainless steel designed to resist the pitting and oxidation common in offshore environments.
-
Mechanical Reliability: Engineered for high-cycle durability, ensuring the spring does not lose its "memory" or tension even after years of use.
-
Precision Fit: An authentic Fin-Nor part that ensures the linkage pin and lever operate with zero binding or mechanical interference.
Maintenance & Lubrication
In offshore reels, the lever drag linkage is often exposed to salt spray that can crystallize and cause the spring to bind. To protect your investment, we recommend using Deuthlon high-performance lubricants:
-
Corrosion Protection: Coat the LF070-01 spring thoroughly with Deuthlon Power Grease before installation. This grease is specifically formulated for extreme pressure and provides a waterproof barrier against salt and moisture.
-
Linkage Smoothness: Apply a drop of Deuthlon Reel Gear Oil to the linkage pins and pivot points associated with the spring to ensure the drag lever moves with effortless precision.
