Are the bellville washers in the FTHII10XNLD2 the same size as the ones in a TRQ/FTH15XNLD2?
Hi, my name is Lee and I have a fishing gear problem.

I have all of the answers, yup, no, maybe.

I'll have Tony or Jim weigh in on this after the weekend.

Hi Keta.  Thanks for reaching out to us.  The Fathom II 10XNLD2 and 15XNLD2 both use the same 1265001 washer.  Washer is .60MM thick.

The TRQ15XNLD2 uses one 1265001 and one 1288188.  The 1288188 is .80MM thick.

Not a comment on the reel itself, I just can't get over how long the product name is. 13 letters long. None seem extraneous given they're all identifying size generation or feature, it just seems...
...Like a 13 character long name that isn't an acronym.

Thanks Jim, I will order both to tinker with my FTHII10NLD2.  I like the ABU 5600 size two speed lever drag reel and can not wait to use it.


Jason,
It is easy if you break down the series (TRQ or FTH) generation (II), the size  (in this case 10) and finaly the features (SD, LD and LD2).  It describes the reels well.

The FTH and the TRQ look similar externaly and fill the same needs but the TRQ is a far better reel.  The "II" is second generation.
The FTH come in the same sizes but star (SD) and lever drag (LD) , single and two speed so the 2 is added for the 2 speed.  The TRQ are only 2 speed lever drag.
Series, generation, size, lever or star drag and single or two speed.
