Precision Performance: Smoothdrag Carbontex Drag Kit for Abu, Lew’s, Bass Pro & Pflueger
If your drag feels "stuttery" or jerky when a fish makes a run, you're fighting your gear instead of the fish. The Smoothdrag Carbontex Drag Kit is the gold-standard upgrade for high-performance low-profile baitcasters. This kit replaces factory felt or composite washers with high-density, cross-weave carbon fiber, delivering a level of smoothness and heat dissipation that standard components simply cannot match.
Whether you're burning a bait for smallmouth or horsing a kicker out of the grass, this Carbontex upgrade ensures your drag engages instantly with zero start-up inertia. It’s the single most cost-effective way to "super-tune" your reel for professional-level reliability.
Why Upgrade to Carbontex?
-
Ultra-Smooth Delivery: Eliminates "stick-slip" (the jerking sensation during a run) to protect light lines and knots.
-
High Thermal Stability: Carbon fiber won't glaze or melt during blistering runs, maintaining consistent pressure from hookset to net.
-
Increased Max Drag: Provides a significant boost in stopping power while retaining granular control at lower settings.
-
Built to Last: These washers are virtually wear-proof, outlasting traditional felt washers by seasons.

Technical Tip: Because internal components can vary by production year, we always recommend verifying your specific gear stack. You can find high-resolution PDF schematics for these models at www.reelschematic.com.
Maintenance & Lubrication Recommendations
To achieve the ultimate "pro-feel" and ensure your drag remains silent and smooth for years, we highly recommend the following during installation:
-
Deuthlon Reel Grease: Apply a very thin, translucent coating to each Carbontex washer. This "wet drag" setup provides superior saltwater protection and a buttery-smooth release.
-
Deuthlon Reel Oil: While your reel is open, apply a drop of Deuthlon Reel Oil to the spool bearings and main shaft. Its ultra-low friction formula will significantly improve your casting distance and decrease mechanical noise.
