Post by: Chuck750ss on January 05, 2018, 04:51:12 PM
Have a never been used 700. A few specs for those interested. Under washers. Uses 2 under washers. (All measurements are metric.) ID 8.0. OD 18.0 . .50 thick, each washer.
Outer washer ID 10.24. OD 24.64. 1.0 thick. Single washer. Outer washer can be thicker. Measured "freeplay" between star outside and inside of handle. 1.8.
Main gear is 29.78 od. And it is magnetic. Looks like stainless but is not.
Spindle od is 7.92
Also all drag washers had a light coating of grease.

I had a chance to buy one of those reels a few months ago for 8 bucks.  That was before I discovered this site, wish I'd known then what I know now.  Thanks for the information, if I run across another at a reasonable price I'll jump on it.
