Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

One object is to provide a fishing reel including a drag device achieving stable drag performance. A fishing reel of the present invention includes: a spool around which a fishing line is to be wound by rotational operation of a handle; and a drag device configured to apply a braking force to the spool, wherein the drag device includes one or more drag washers, one or more lining washers in surface contact with the drag washers, and an operation member for adjusting a pressing force of the drag washers on the lining washers, and wherein the lining washers are provided with a grease having a viscosity of 800 mm 2 /s or higher.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A fishing reel comprising: a spool around which a fishing line is to be wound by rotational operation of a handle; and a drag device configured to apply a braking force to the spool, wherein the drag device includes one or more drag washers, one or more lining washers each in surface contact with one or more of the drag washers, and an operation member for adjusting a pressing force of the drag washers on the lining washers, and wherein the lining washers are provided with a grease having a viscosity of 800 mm 2 /s or higher. 2. The fishing reel of claim 1 , wherein the fishing reel is a spinning reel, wherein the grease has a viscosity of 900 to 2,500 mm 2 /s. 3. The fishing reel of claim 1 , wherein the fishing reel is a double bearing reel, and wherein the grease has a viscosity of 5,000 to 23,000 mm 2 /s.
