Title: Pro exw 50/2 handle replacement
Post by: jzumi on October 15, 2023, 12:45:45 AM
A friend's older Avet is in need of a new crank arm.

He's trying to replace the pin (key 078) but Avet has sent him a new pin that appears way too short compared to the one currently installed. Avet has sent this twice.

Any clues on how to get the correct part?

Thanks
John

I would call Avet and ask them.

if you can get the diameter and length of the pin, i might be able to figure something out.

3/32 wide and approx 15/32 long

Hope that that's enough to go on. Let me know if there's more info needed. I should just go grab his reels so they're in front of me but I don't want to take them away during this epic tuna  bite... but I can, just let me know.

Dan says he's got two of these reels needing this pin.

Thanks,
John

I have stainless steel welding rids that are 3/32". Send a pm with his address.  I will cut some and mail them out.
