The SCA16 are carbon arbor shims designed to be fitted into size 16 reel seats. Their purpose is to improve the transmission of vibrations between the carbon blank and the angler's hand.
By leaving a gap between the reel seat and the blank, a resonance chamber is also created which amplifies the vibrations. A bit like a guitar or a drum kit for example.
Instructions for use :
1. Fit the SCA16 to your reel seat by sanding them down, we recommend using your drill as a lathe, it will make the job easier.
2. Apply the epoxy Tuff glue to the inside of your reel seat
3. Position the SCA16 inside your reel seat - this step is best done with a pencil for example.
4. After your epoxy has dried completely, ream the SCA16 to the intended location of your reel seat on your rig.
These little carbon spacers may well revolutionize your builds for bottom fishing by turning your reel seat into a speaker!
Please note that we do not recommend using the SCA16 with blanks that bend a lot, as they can create too much stress when your blank is ovalized during the fight.
