Title: Quantum PF200C
Post by: avery73 on April 22, 2014, 04:05:23 PM
I bought this reel in 2009 at a garage sale from a older gentleman that used to fish tournaments. when I first got it, it worked great. just this year I have started having issues with it. It's a 2 bearing system. I know the anti reverse isn't working properly. Main question I have for anyone that might be able to help is I am wondering what year the reel was made and if there is a rebuild kit I can even get for it. I have searched internet to see what I can find ' haven't been able to come up with anything. Any info that anyone can be would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

bearings are going to standard sizes, drag washers will likely have to cut to size.  you can also measure the drags and see if something here will fit.

the actual model name is "Quantum Profile".  Don't bother w/ a browser search because every "low-profile" Quantum will pop up.  Go straight to Schematics sites & search for BOTH, Profile & PF...  under BOTH, Quantum & Zebco

This seems to suggest the reel is about 15 y. o. & may have been discontinued due to design issues:
