Avail handle with Steez style bolt

Post by MountainMan 83 » Fri Aug 21, 2020 7:36 am

I am looking to pick up an Avail handle and was wondering if it a Steez style handle bolt would work with the recessed retainer or if I'd have to pick up a thicker bolt?
I'd love to see a picture if you're running one of these handles like this. Thanks!

Worst case scenario Ray's Studio has a Daiwa bolt with the longer head on it that when fitted sticks out as far as the traditional nut type.

Right on. I realized they make a version of the handle without the recessed section.

Not a good picture but this is a purple rays studio handle bolt. I just wanted the purple and didn't realize the head would be as tall as it is. Once fitted it looks like a regular Daiwa nut. I got it from the weihai fishing store on aliexpress.
