Product Description
Fin-Nor QAF332-01 Drag Knob Assembly (Trophy 80)
Regain precise control over your drag pressure with the genuine Fin-Nor QAF332-01 Drag Knob Assembly. Designed specifically for the Fin-Nor Trophy 80 spinning reel, this component is the primary interface for adjusting drag tension during a fight, allowing you to dial in the perfect resistance to tire out heavy fish without breaking your line.
As an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) part, this assembly is critical not just for drag adjustment, but for protecting the internal drag stack. It acts as the top seal for the spool, preventing saltwater spray and debris from contaminating the drag washers and compromising performance.
