Penn 112H Senator (1975 vintage ?) repair questions

broadway · March 23, 2011, 08:45:16 PM

Hey Rob,
Sorry to not ask sooner, but did you say prototype 112h with 5+1 drag stack??? Keep me posted if it's not to top secret. I'd use my 112h for sharkin' if you figured out how to do it

I love and have full faith in the 112h. I also love bushings when trolling cause you can regrease in the field with EASE! Let me know if ya need anything!
Git it done brotha,
Dom

Dom, we opened her up when we put the boat on the trailer. she had 4 whole bunkers in her. That cow weight in at 44 pound with no guts. I was trying to post the picture, but not even my daughter the scientist could get it done, I will try again later.

Hey Dom -
I'm trying to see if a 1+5 can go in my jigmaster. Bryan's working on thinner metal washers and I'm planning to use 0.5mm #21 Carbontex with them. If it will all fit in the Penn 500 without modification, it should work in a 300 or 400 series Newell that should be able to take the load. No time line established.

Man, I wish I had a wet knife sharpen machine. Would make the task a lot faster and easier. I wonder how much it would cost to punch out a set if the desire is great.

I desire times 4

they would cost $1 each with a minimum order would be 500 slotted and 750 keyed. $:-\$

Hey Alan,
I'd be in for 40 or so... anyone else?

I'd get 10 sets of 5-stack metals.

ReelSpeed · April 01, 2011, 03:52:54 AM

How thick do they need to be?

Bryan Young · April 01, 2011, 04:17:09 AM

probably 0.5 mm thick, but I'm not sure about the strength of the eared and keyed washer at that thickness to hold it's shape in the stack.

ReelSpeed · April 01, 2011, 04:22:05 AM

I would think it would be okay... I might be able to work something up here... let me see what I can do.

broadway · April 01, 2011, 04:24:13 AM

If the old washers were brass, and these are thinner but stainless... hmmm? I would venture to say the stainless would be stronger, but I'm NOT an engineer. They're are engineers on here... what do you guys think?
Dom

Norcal Pescador · April 01, 2011, 04:25:56 AM

The stock 3-stack is about 5.5mm thick. Using 0.5mm Carbontex x 5 washers = 2.5mm, leaving 3mm for the 5 metals = about 0.6mm each.
Funny, I was just thinking about the strength issue too. $:-\$

Bryan Young · April 01, 2011, 04:29:20 AM

@ Dom - The brass washers and available stainless steel washers are thicker than 0.5 mm thick.

@ Aaron - Are you working this weekend? Maybe be able to stop by if things work out to talk about this more. If not, I'll give you a call.

ReelSpeed · April 01, 2011, 04:37:58 AM

Let me see how things pan out bryan. I WILL be working, it is just a matter of how much time I end up having.

Lots of stuff at the shop and a bunch of reels to take care of... Might end up having to be a phone call... $:-\$

Thinking about making the washers out of hardened 17-4 to make up some strength.. or maybe look into titanium... need to see costs though.
