Meisselbach nuts and bolts (screws)

Post by Paul Roberts »

I’ve seen a number of Meisselbach reels that are missing either AB faceplate screws or a handle nut. Are replacements difficult to find?

No, not if you don't mind paying for the reel attached. Seriously, they are almost impossible to find. I am looking for a nicklel silver handle nut myself. Good luck! Dave

I have a good number of the nickel plated version. Send me a PM if you want one.

Thanks, Roger. Nickel plate will probably do for the (fishable) reels I will be getting. I'll also be looking for faceplate screws, if you have any of those too. Thanks.
