After 20 years, Alice & I are retiring from owning & managing Genuine Bellinger, INC & Bellinger Reel Seats. Mike McFarland of McFarland Rod Company will take over ownership & management and will relocate the business to his hometown of Bellwood, PA. During this transition period, customers may continue to order a limited number of items through this website: WE ARE CURRENTLY VERY LOW (OR OUT OF) MOST REELSEATS (particularly hardware). Please feel free to email us at info@genuinebellinger.com to check availability or check back on website in approximately 3 weeks. |
Sometimes you just have to go with a step-down ferrule. Stay consistent and maintain that “classic” look to your rod. These step-down ferrules feature a fine knurled welt on the female ferrule that matches perfectly the "dime side" knurling on our Bellinger winding checks and reel seat hardware.
Ferrule size is determined by the OD of the bamboo side and "step's" down two sizes on the ID of the male. A size 12 ferrule fits a bamboo OD of .1875" the male slide ID is .156"
Male slide comes over-size for a custom fit
Contact us for pricing on ferrule sizes larger than 17 or request in Customer Notes < $8 per set
