NEWELL 550 KIT WITH RED TIBURON FRAME AND NEWELL GRAPHITE SPOOL
FEATURES TIBURON FRAME:
This is a very rare custom red anodized Tiburon Engineering N550 topless reel frame for a Newell 550 wide saltwater conventional fishing reel!
This red frame will work on any 500 series Newell in conjunction with a 550 spool made by either Tiburon or Newell.
This topless frame will not only align the bearings for better freespool, but it provides rigidity and piece of mind when you compare it with the “piece-frame” design of original Newells. Removing the need for a top crossbar allows you to thumb the spool better for both casting and live-bait fishing!
This red frame will work with various generations of Newell 500 series reels because all you need are the outer sideplate screws (which will be provided in the kit) to affix the sideplates to the frame!
You will still use the inner and outer rings, but only the outer ring screws will thread into the frame.
This red N550 frame will also come with a black aluminum clamp kit!
This frame was CNC machined from aircraft grade 6061 aluminum, and has been Type-II anodized to prevent corrosion from saltwater.
Please be sure to use marine grease and/or Corrosion-X on all the inner rings and screws/screw threads prior to installation!
FEATURES NEWELL SPOOL:
This is a mint condition like new graphite spool that is super lightweight, free spools great and casts like a dream. It has the very strong ribbed design with a hardened stainless steel spool shaft. This spool holds 500 yards of 50 pound test line.
