Re: Daiwa mag seal
I have a few mag seal reels, 3 purchased second hand and no issues to date. fished in salt & fresh, clean down after each use and the only change parts required have been the line roller bearing.

Because those of us who self service can't (couldn't) get the oil to replace it when it inevitably 'fell' into the reel itself.frozenpod wrote:Magseal is a great idea not sure why there is so much negativity around it.
I've got Daiwas, Sols, Luvias, Certates. All of them pre mag seal. I haven't and won't buy a mag sealed reel

Re: Daiwa mag seal
I service all my own reels but even if I couldn't get the oil you can use regular grease and oil and just loose the magseal feature. It becomes like every other reel.cobby wrote:Because those of us who self service can't (couldn't) get the oil to replace it when it inevitably 'fell' into the reel itself.frozenpod wrote:Magseal is a great idea not sure why there is so much negativity around it.

Re: Daiwa mag seal
If a fully sealed reel is so important to you just get a Slammer III or a Van Staal.

Re: Daiwa mag seal
Magnetic fluid oil is available on Ebay for around $60-00... not cheap, but only one drop is used it will last a very long time..

Re: Daiwa mag seal
adrian, do you have a link to the seller on ebay.
and do they give you instructions where to use the oil, its not something you can just put anywhere
