Title: Penn 52-720 Replacement Drag Knob
Post by: Cortez_Conversions on August 08, 2024, 03:22:38 PM
Hello All,
I need some help qualifying these knob prototypes. I need someone who can install and fish them immediately so I can release them.

I sent a pair to a guy who ended up being a thief, so please only contact me if you are willing and able to immediately test and reply!

Who can test these for me? Looking for two or three people.

Thanks!
Tom

I know these are prototypes  but have to ask will the finished black knob be smooth or have the rings is that part of the process?
I can't
See them on the white?

That's the machined finish.
I'm using Acetal to help reduce cracking, but the material has a natural lubricity, so I machined those ridges for a bit of grip. In reality, they are very small and probably won't even be noticed at arms length.
