Just wondering what everyone is using as lube on the carbon washers for their SOM NL 16000 and Jigging Master 16000 spools. :) cheers.

Cal's grease is the popular choice Damir. Just use tiny amounts.

Hey Antonino, The SOM NL 16000 spool I purchased about 2 months ago already had lube on it. Just a very small amount which I understand is the go for carbon fibre based drag systems. Cheers. ;D

Hi Damir,
I just recive JM 16000 MS (thanks to Brandon's review  :D ). Hope to test it as soon as possible (my be first time will be in summer for tuna season...  :( ). When I'll came back to Italy, I will check if has lube for disk drag, but I think so... Thanks for answer.
Cheers,
Antonino

PS.: Whit some friend, we're looking for drag material to realise disk drag for original spools. We'd like to find it on sheet of different thickness, to adapt them to different spools. If we'll find them, I will post info.

cals or shimano ace 2 are 2 of the better drag greases around
