Yumeya cork knobs

Post by BRONZEBACK32 » Sat Dec 27, 2014 10:00 am

Does anyone know if the YUMEYA CORK TYPE-III SHORT/Type-A will fit shimano spinning reels?
Gonna order some of these, I also noticed they come in a two pack.

I know the yumeya type II handles will work.


Thanks for any info.

Responded to your PM but wanted to post in case anyone searched it in the future. The short knobs will fit. "A Type" refers to the handle posts on most Shimano freshwater reels. Japan Tackle is a good reference for people wanting to change knobs. Both the long and short Yumeya knobs have the same internal structure and just build up the outside to provide differing knob lengths.
