Hi guys,

I have a question. The little bearing housed inside the drag plate, is it best to grease it or is oil the better option?

Cheers in advance,

I use grease, only the two fitted inside the the spool affect freespool so you might as well use grease. Just be sure not to use too much as it can get on the drag plate OR use Cal's drag grease so if a little gets on the plate it does not matter.

i grease that one and keep it shielded. a little yamaha grease on a drag washer will not be too much of a problem.

I use Yamaha grease as well but I know some people worry about mixing grease (greases???).
