Penn 1182812 Bail Arm Fishing Reel Part

Product Description

The PENN 1182812 is a replacement bail arm designed for compatible PENN spinning reels. The bail arm is the wire-form component that spans the front of the reel spool, guiding fishing line onto the spool during retrieve and flipping open to release line during a cast. This part is installed by anglers and tackle technicians performing reel maintenance or repair when the original bail arm becomes bent, fatigued, or broken. Sourcing an OEM-style replacement preserves the original function and geometry of the reel, maintaining proper line lay and bail-trip performance.

This bail arm is suited for spinning reel repair and maintenance applications in recreational and light sport fishing environments. It is intended as a direct replacement for a worn or damaged original component in the applicable PENN reel model. Installers should verify reel model compatibility before ordering, as bail arms are model-specific components that vary in geometry and mounting configuration.
