I make these custom bail springs by hand in my workshop from
stainless steel spring wire. I have been making bail springs for approximately
25 years for use in my various reels. They function like factory made ones and
have essentially the same use life. I’ve
been selling bail springs on eBay since 2014. I’ve had a 99% plus rate of
success with their quality. If you have an issue with the installation or
function of a spring, please contact me immediately. I will work to make things
right to your satisfaction.

BAIL SPRING INSTALLATION:
If the bail does not work properly, take the bail spring
cover off to make sure the bottom arm is engaged. Flex the bail with this open
to see if the top of the bail spring is engaged in the bail. If both of these
are engaged put the bail spring cover back into place. If they are not engaged
repeat the installation instructions.
If the bail spring appears to work weakly, loosen the bail
screw several turns and try the bail. If the bail now works properly, the bail
is sprung. A sprung bail will cause the bail and bail screw to rub on each
other and reduce the free play of the bail. The bail must be sprung back into a
position to allow free play of the bail.
I combine ship. I charge the full shipping and handling
amount for the first item and then $1.00 for each additional item.
