Title: Accurate handle help
Post by: Big Tim on July 07, 2014, 10:28:13 PM
I purchased an Accurate handle for a 113H build and it came with an insert & I do not like the fit at all...Loosened up after only light fishing...I do not have the original part #, but think it was an H40? ...The question is will this fit a 6/0 senator?

Maybe a Black one Tim. Not the 114H. It uses the same handle and sleeve as the 9/0.

Without the sleeve it's definitely to big for a 113H

Tim,
One of Alan's ss sleeves for the 114H or 9/0 measures 13/32" on the flats and 29/64" on the round.

Aloha Tim,

Without the insert, it's for the 114H reel.  I have a few of those arms and inserts, each person that purchased them opted for Alan's SS arms instead, and I transferred the knob to the SS arm.  Of course, my knobs could be taken off.  I'm not sure about your handle.

Additionally, I don't like aluminum arms.  The then to corrode and loosen up after a couple of years of use.

Yea...I don't like it at all and I'm not going to build a 6/0...Thanks for all the input guys.

Get a Keta Krank, Big T. You can't go wrong with those! ;)

I prefer stainless steel arms on my reels or Penn's. I'm not crazy about aluminum, but don't mind the knob.
Lee might be out of commission for a little while, Alan's are also nice.

It will be used for rock and halibut fishing so the standard Penn handle or even a pro gear set up will work for this job. It's going to my son Johnny next month for his birthday anyway...To bad Accurate didn't pay much attention to detail...Nice frames for sure.
