Title: Dam Quick drag kit
Post by: Three se7ens on September 25, 2017, 01:45:46 AM
I have had a few people asking for drag kits for the Dam Quick 270 and 275, so I will do a small run for anyone who is interested.  

The metal washers are 0.030" thick grade 5 titanium, which is the same as I use in my insert drag kits.  The carbon fiber I have on hand is 0.040" thick, but if there is enough interest, I could get something thinner.  

I can sell the washers individually, or I can put together a kit.  Whatever you guys would prefer.  

I attached a PDF with the dimensions if anyone wants to check this against other models it may fit as well.  Im not familiar with these reels, so any input is welcome.

Comment here to reserve what you want, but payment wont be due until the parts are completed and ready to ship.

Are these 220 or super 275 drag kits? Description says 220, had the link to here in a super 275 topic. Just curious I would buy a two kits for a 275 and even one for a 220.

Typo on my part, original post edited.  Sheridan's was a 275 and Steves was a 270.  The washers for both measured the same.  Also saw mention of a 550 using the same washers as well.

Any idea on cost per set ?   I could use at least a dozen for my 270's maybe more if these will fit the 550.

The pricing will depend on the quantity.  Id figure around $1.50 per washer, either titanium or cf.  It could go down if I can do a bigger batch, or potentially go up some if a special material is requested(i.e. thinner carbon fiber).  I can give a better idea of the pricing once I see how many people may be interested.

I would like these in a kit form. I dont want to speak for every one but from what I gatther most are desiring a complete kit. Please speak up if I have this wrong.  

With the thinner metal washers is there room for more washers in the stack than with the stock confguration ? ...Jeff

Hi Adam,

Would you please attach a 1:1 PDF drawing that I could print and place my washers over to see how they fit?

Thank you.

Bryan

I prefer just a kit I have made my own cf washers for these reels starting with ones meant for something else, but I would just prefer a kit as I'm sure your cf washers are cut better. I would buy two kits for sure possibly more in the future if I were to acquire more supers which I'm sure I would when I can get deals on them.

Im going to put in the order next week.  I just received the cf sheets yesterday. 

I have 0.5mm, 0.7mm, and 1.0mm available.  What would you all like for these kits?

Whats the benefit of going thinner or thiicker ? Does thinner equal more washers giving smoother drag ?  Something I have no experience messing with.... Jeff

Thinner means there is potential for more washers in the drag stack.  I dont know the min/max drag stack height that fits on these reels, so if anyone wants to measure theirs, Id love to hear it. 

Generally, more friction surfaces = smoother drag

I get .279 for a dirty washer stack & around .410 for the stack recess in the spool.... I can mail out a couple of spools if you'd like ? ...Jeff

I finally got around to pricing this out and finalizing the set. 

The set will include 3 each of the keyed titanium washers, and 3 each of the eared titanium washers, and 4 each 0.7mm carbon fiber drag washers.  The stack will only use 5 of the metal washers, so the user will have the choice of the keyed or the eared washers on both the top and bottom of the stack.  5 metal washers and 4 carbon fiber washers puts the nominal stack height at 0.267".

Price will be $18.50 per set.

Have you had a chance to start sending invoices yet? Cause three kits would be awesome for some reels I've got waiting for them.
