The PENN Defiance was engineered to be an extremely versatile all-around reel at an affordable price. It features a lightweight graphite frame and sideplates with stainless steel frame rings for improved rigidity to prevent frame-flex. HT-100 drag washers provide smooth drag under heavy loads. Line Capacity Rings eliminate the question of how much line you have left when fighting a fish.

Highlights:

Versa Handle Versa Handle system allows the angler to choose how long the handle should be in less than a minute, tools are provided with each reel. You can choose between having the power to bring in the big fish, or the speed to bring in your bait off the bottom.

Braid Ready Braid ready to handle the strain that braided line puts on a reel. HSP models have a brass spool for wireline capabilities.

HT-100 HT-100 Drag Washers provide smooth drag under heavy loads. Reel in that trophy fish with confidence in your reel.

Review by Arlon Kennedy on 4/27/2016

I live in South Florida and consider it a must that I take advantage of the greatest deep sea fishing resources anywhere in the world. This is my 7th PENN reel and so far it has lived up to the company's reputation for producing reliable, tough and solid reels. Had it out for a three day Dry Tortugas trip and made out like a bandit. I highly recommend it and will likely buy others in this family.

12/21/2023 Got it! Its perfect. Thank you so much. It was just on a whim that I even searched for this part. Hard to believe that I could get a reel part for a reel that is 30 plus years old. Thanks again,
