Penn 1380743 Main Gear

The Penn 1380743 Main Gear is a rotational drive mechanism that is operated to power other internal mechanisms. It is used in conjunction with other mechanical parts to translate handle input into motion to drive the reel mechanism. It is mounted in the part assembly and allows for ensuring that the rotating parts are properly attached and move together. The part contributes to the smoothness of function, efficient transfer of motion, and uniformity of mechanical response when operating. It performs a role that enables coordinated movement between the drive system and reel elements and facilitates accurate line retrieval performance.
