Product Description
Fin-Nor VF012-01 High-Speed Drive Gear (SA12-16)
Restore the high-speed performance and smooth cranking power of your Fin-Nor reel with the Genuine Fin-Nor VF012-01 High-Speed Drive Gear. This is the primary, factory-original main gear for the high-speed setting, meticulously engineered to OEM specifications for a perfect, drop-in replacement.
The drive gear is the most critical component in your reel's drivetrain, responsible for transferring power from the handle to the spool. In a two-speed reel like the Santiago, this high-speed gear is precision-cut to deliver rapid line retrieval, which is essential for catching up to fast-moving pelagic fish.
A worn, chipped, or corroded gear can lead to rough or "grinding" retrieval, reduced cranking power, and, in the worst case, catastrophic failure during a fight. This genuine replacement part restores the smooth, powerful, and fast operation your reel had when it was new.
