Hiya Dawn!

How long are the handle blanks for T-Bar and knob?

Thanks!

I just ordered and installed a 'Blank' & Jumbo handle on my TLD 30 II...
Needed some cranking Torque (length)....

The Blank is 4" overall and 3 1/8" center hole to center hole...
5/8" longer then stock (center to center 'was' 2 1/2")..
Feels great!!!!   Looks awesome....  :-)

Doing some Tiagra 50 W II (new Jumbo handles) and the Blank is the same 3 1/8" length (center to center), for comparison...   
50W II, is a much, much bigger Reel....

Hi
They vary a bit depending on reel they go on.  About 3 3/4 to  4 1/2.  If you want to know a specific reel, let me know.
