10CAC (TGT1562 Bolt Shield)

Genuine Shimano Bolt Shield (part #10CAC) — the bolt shield is a protective cover that sits over exposed bolts and hardware on the reel body, keeping salt spray, sand, and debris from infiltrating internal mechanisms. Without this shield, corrosion builds up on bolt threads and surrounding components, leading to seized hardware and costly damage. Cross-references with Shimano part number TGT1562. OEM replacement provides factory-fit protection and a clean, finished look. Available from Offshore Tackle & Repair in Stuart, FL — your trusted source for genuine Shimano reel parts.
