10KY1  (RD16236  Line Roller)

Genuine Shimano Line Roller (part #10KY1, RD16236) — the line roller is the small rotating cylinder on the bail assembly that guides fishing line smoothly onto the spool, reducing friction and minimizing line twist during retrieves. A seized, grooved, or worn line roller dramatically increases line twist and abrasion, leading to tangles and premature line failure. Cross-references with Shimano part numbers 10KY1 and RD16236. OEM replacement ensures perfect fit and factory performance. Available from Offshore Tackle & Repair in Stuart, FL — your trusted source for genuine Shimano reel parts.
