SHG bearing

The high-sensitive bearing whose rotary performance is terrific is for professional use. The products were carefully selected by hand work from the crowd of other bearings.
The rotational performance is superior to HRCB, and there is no rival for its ultimate smoothness.
This is the bearing to tune up for professional-use. It is very suitable for a high sensitivity reel to challenge by delicate tackle.



HRCB bearing

The bearing is resistance to salt water.

- for Bearing Drag System (Spool Inside Bearing)



If you remove the drag washers from the inside of the 23 GEKKABIJIN spool, you will see a collar at the far end. Replacing this collar with a bearing is called a finesse spool drag bearing tune.

By adding a bearing to this part, you can make the rotation of the drag smoother.

It also reduces drag sticking and supports smooth line release.

*The 23 GEKKABIJIN has a metal collar instead of a resin collar.


Installation



(1) Remove the drag ring and drag the washer from the spool.

It's recommended to keep the removed parts to make reassembly smoother when putting the parts back.




(2) After removing the drag washers and other parts, you will see a collar fixed to the bottom of the spool with a stopper ring.

Remove the stopper ring using a small flat-blade screwdriver or toothpick, and pull out the collar.

*Please note that the stopper ring is easy to lose when removing the stopper ring.




(3) Replace the collar with the bearing (size 1060) included in the kit.




(4) Install the bearing into the spool and secure it with the stopper ring.

Install the drag washers in the reverse order of when they were removed, then install the reel and confirm that the spool rotates smoothly and makes a proper clicking sound.

If there are no problems, the work is complete.

If it does not work properly, there is a possibility that some parts have been installed incorrectly, so please disassemble the reel and check again.


- for Bearing Drag System (Spool Shaft Bearing)



If you remove the drag washers from the inside of the 23 GEKKABIJIN spool, you will see a collar at the far end. Replacing this collar with a bearing is called a finesse spool drag bearing tune.

By adding a bearing to this part, you can make the rotation of the drag smoother.
It also reduces drag sticking and supports smooth line release.


Installation

This will reveal a hex screw.




(2) Remove this with the hexagonal wrench provided.




(3) Then the collar and spool metal can be removed.




(4) Replace the collar with the bearing (1170 size) included in the kit.




(5) Reinstall the spool metal and bearing to the spool shaft and secure the parts using the hex screws.

- for 2 Bearing Handle Knob System



Replace the two Collars in the handle knob of 23 GEKKABIJIN with bearings.

Adding bearings to the handle knob can further improve the quality and sensitivity of the reeling feel.


*When installing this kit, we will not touch the parts where the mag shield is built (the part under the rotor with the Magshield stamped). Therefore, please be assured that the mag shield will not come off during installation.

It is easy to reassemble the parts and return the reel to its original condition.
