Reel X

[Hammer 4]

Has anyone tried the reelx lube..?

I use it to lightly lube my worm gears and plastic gears.  I also use it in my drive shaft bearings, not on the spool bearings.  If you are prone to use only oil in a pinion bearing instead of grease, Reel X is the way to go in the pinion bearing.  I order mine directly from the company. It is a great product.

So, it's not meant for bearings..?

Otherwise, can you see a difference in smoothness, and or casting performance.?

Not for high RPM bearing like the spool bearings.  For those I use Yellow Rocket fuel.  Having said that, I have read where salt water anglers use it in their bearings for its anti corrosion properties.  I would guess that most salt water anglers do not have to cast for max distance like bass anglers do.

My bass club is sponsored by them, and it is a great product in my personal opinion. I usually use it everywhere you use oil, and put a dab of oil on the bearings. I had to put 2 more breaks on because of how much faster the spool went.
