Title: Stradic ci4 4000f handle
Post by: Biggertroy on October 14, 2020, 10:27:43 PM
I have acquired an older Stradic cif 4000f  that has a missing handle. I am having trouble locating a replacement and I can't seem to get any info if one from another model Stradic will work ? E replacement parts list is as backorder and dont know if or when they will get any. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks a bunch

my SU-6000FA handles fit at least one Malay Stradic 6000 & one Malay Baitrunner (huge...  16,000?)
not 100% on this, but I think MANY earlier Malaysian direct-drive gears/handles use same screw as
'97 SustainFA (perma-peened RD-4738) & TwinPowerXT (2-bearing RD-?)
those oldies also use the widest AL collars -- most likely to fit, but not as sleek-looking
original SustainF double-paddle should also be same screw

This guy has some used handles.... One looks to me like a Stradic ci4 4000f... I don't have an affiliation with him, but he is in Lakewood CA....

I actually tried the handle from a baitrunner d and the threads are the same but the collar was a little tight. I shimmed it out with some washers and it works perfectly.  It will at least do until I can find an original handle.  Thanks to all.
