Carbontex Drag Washers

(1/5) > >>

Damien Phillip:
Just wondering who uses these and in what reels?

Any comments appreciated

Jon Li:
I have 6 spools of '98 Stella and 1 spool of Z4500 using Carbontex , the original carbon drag washers from Shimano ( dartanium ? ) yield a higher maximum drag but the carbontex is smoother , as for Daiwa carbon drag washers , they are just not up to the task when one uses at high drag set .

Brandon Khoo:
I have them in all my 6500 spools.

Andy Rowe:
Me too, 4 x 6500 and 1 x 4500

Damien Phillip:
Cheers for that guys. So what your saying is you wouldn't put them in a Stella but put them in a Saltiga? and the Shimano washers are slightly better than the Daiwa's?

I want to start doing this in all my new reels.
