Choosing the Right Traxstech Aluminum Reel Kit for Your Planer Board Mast Setup
When upgrading or replacing components in your planer board mast system, it’s important to evaluate your current setup and specific requirements. Traxstech offers two aluminum reel kits designed to enhance your system based on your needs.
Option 1: Upgrading from a Lexan Reel
Aluminum Planer Reel Kit (Part: #APR-350)
- Designed for upgrading from a Lexan reel to an aluminum planer reel.
- Includes the aluminum planer reel, an aluminum handle, and necessary components for the drag system replacement.
- Ideal if you already have a compatible mast setup and only need to replace the reel itself.
Option 2: Complete Reel Setup for Planer Board Masts
Aluminum Planer Reel Kit for Planer Boat Masts (Part: #APR-400)
- Designed as a full reel assembly for planer board masts.
- Includes an aluminum planer reel, aluminum handle, reel shank, handle, line guide with a T-nut, and a pulley with an eyebolt for the mast's top.
- Recommended for those needing a complete reel setup or replacing an entire assembly.
Key Considerations for Selecting the Right Kit:
- Current Setup: If you only need to upgrade from a Lexan reel, the APR-350 is the right choice.
- Need for a Full Assembly: If your mast setup is missing components or requires a full reel system, the APR-400 provides a complete solution.
- Compatibility: Always verify your existing mast configuration to ensure the selected kit includes the necessary components for a seamless upgrade.
Note: Line is not included with either kit.
By selecting the appropriate Traxstech aluminum reel kit, you can optimize the performance and durability of your planer board mast system, ensuring smooth and efficient operation on the water.
