Rods/Reels ISLANDER PADDLE HANDLE UPGRADE KIT

ISLANDER PADDLE HANDLE UPGRADE KIT

Need bigger paddle handles on your Islander mooching reel? Here they are! But first… check to see which size handles you have on your reel.

These paddle handles uphold the same standards as all Islander-made products. They are CNC machined out of a high quality, engineering plastic called Delrin®. These standards and this material brings together precise tolerances, reliability and durability.

Paddle handles will fit directly on MR3 & MR2-LA sized reels and newer MR2 & ARMR2 reels (if they have Large sized handles).

 

Signs that you have Large handles (no handle base upgrade required)

-The handles are notched at the bottom and the bases flow smoothly into the shape of the handle.
-The handles are just as wide as the handle bases.
Handle diameter: 5/8 inch

Older MR2 and ARMR2 reels with Medium sized handles will require an additional handle base upgrade.

 

Signs that you have Medium handles (and require a handle base upgrade)

-The handles sit inset from the edge of the current handle bases.
-The handle bases are wider than the handles.
Handle diameter: 1/2 inch
Base diameter: 0.55 inch
