8-710 (Main Gear w/ Ratchet)

Genuine Penn Main Gear with Ratchet (part #8-710) — the primary drive gear that transfers cranking force from the handle to the rotor, combined with the built-in ratchet for anti-reverse function. This is the heart of your reel's gear train, and it must mesh cleanly with the pinion gear to deliver smooth, powerful retrieves. Worn or stripped main gear teeth cause grinding, skipping, and loss of cranking power under heavy loads. Cross-references with Penn part number 8-710. Compatible with Penn 710 spinning reels. OEM replacement ensures perfect fit and factory performance. Available from Offshore Tackle & Repair in Stuart, FL — your trusted source for genuine Penn reel parts.
