Title: Need e-clip for Jack Handle Part # 3-319 (circlip)
Post by: spoons on September 23, 2019, 04:36:58 PM
Anyone know where I can get an e-clip jack handle for a 332 reel?  Part number is 3-319 (circlip)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I tried looking at Lowes and they have the steel versions.  Looking for the stainless version and size.  not sure what size they are.

I believe wilrite (spelling?) on eBay sells them. There's a few posts about him on here in the newell section. He also has a bunch of other small parts on there and if you don't have one get the ultimate upgrade drag kit, we'll worth the $

Thank you sir.

Will the ultimate drag upgrade kit be ok for a stock reel?  I'd hate to bust it up over dragging it.

Just checked the Newell Parts -- Sorry, just have the smaller Cir-Clips in SS.

McMaster-Carr, Harbor Freight, and a few other online sources will have these in assorted sizes.

Welcome aboard!

Best,

Fred

The ultimate upgrade is fine on stock Newell reels. All of mine are set up that way and I fish hard. No issue at all. What you will find with the ultimate upgrade is a smoother drag.

Darn, I'm a day too late. Looked all around and could not find one. Went to a local tackle shop and they sold me two for $4.00! I knew it was a rip off but I needed it.
