Parts and service routes by brand
Each cell comes from the brand's own pages and forms, read on 30 October 2026. Check warranty first: if the reel is under a year old, a covered defect should go through the warranty claim, and opening the reel yourself can void it. [3] [10]
| Brand | Schematic | Buying parts | Service route | Published paid pricing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Piscifun | Product manual PDF on the product page; the Carbon X II manual has exploded views for the 1000, 2000 and 3000 with a numbered part list [4] [5] | No parts store page found; contact customer service by email, which replies within one business day [6] [15] | Email with proof of purchase for warranty repair or replacement [6] | Not published [6] |
| KastKing | Manuals & Schematics page with a Download PDF link per reel model [2] | Generic 'KastKing Reel Parts' listing: $7.99 reel part, $8.99 knob, $11.99 handle, $12.99 bail, $13.99 spool, $15.99 side plate or power handle; model and part number go in order notes [1] | Contact Us channels; in warranty, free labour with parts charged at cost [3] | Out of warranty: USD 15 plus parts, subject to assessment [3] |
| Shimano | Spare Parts pages by reel model, split by version (for example Aldebaran 50, 50HG, 51, 51HG) [7] [8] | Online parts shop or by phone, Shimano's FAQ says; it also links eReplacement Parts [9] [7] | Reel Repair request; starting one requires a signed-in customer account [11] | Estimate before any paid work [10] |
| Daiwa | Parts Diagram & Owner's Manuals link on its service page [12] | Order parts by phone through Daiwa; customer service helps find the part [13] [12] | Send to Daiwa's Service Department in Foothill Ranch, California, or an authorized US warranty center, with the request form [13] [14] [12] | Flat rates: fly and spincast $30, spinning $45, baitcasting and conventional $55, spinning performance $65, two-speed $85; Certate, Exist and Saltiga spinning $125 [14] |
| PENN | None found on the pages we read; the site menu lists a Parts & Maintenance section [16] | Through repair service: parts billed per its consumer price list [16] | Factory Service Department with a repair form, or a local authorized warranty center [16] [19] | $10 per reel handling plus flat labour by model, parts and UPS shipping [16] |
Find the right schematic and part number
Start with the exact model, including the size and any letters or version code. Shimano splits its Aldebaran parts by version, ALD50, ALD50HG, ALD51 and ALD51HG, so a 50 and a 51 need different parts lists. [8] KastKing lists separate PDFs for closely named reels, such as Sharky III Baitcasting and Sharky III Long Cast Baitcasting. [2]
On a schematic, each part has a reference number on the drawing and a row in the parts list. Piscifun's Carbon X II manual pairs each drawing number with a part number and a part name, size by size. [5] KastKing's own example of a correct order note is 'Sharky Baitfeeder III 3000 Part#3-5 Ball Bearing': model, size, part reference and description. [1]
Daiwa says parts diagrams are under the Service tab and that reel parts can be ordered by phone; its customer service helps you find the part you need. [13] [12] Shimano's FAQ points to its online parts shop or phone support. [9]
Part, service or new reel: a worked example
Say a KastKing Sharky III 3000 ($61.99 on 30 October 2026) loses its spool. [17] KastKing's spool line is $13.99; if the order stays under $50, shipping is $4.98 economy, so about $18.97 in total, under a third of a new reel. [1] [18] If you are not sure how to fit it, KastKing's paid repair is USD 15 plus parts, subject to assessment. [3]
For a Daiwa spinning reel that needs a full service, the request form lists a $45 flat rate, with additional charges possible beyond normal wear and tear; repaired reels return by standard ground. [14] For a PENN reel, budget the $10 handling fee plus the model's flat labour rate, parts at its consumer price list and shipping at UPS rates; PENN's service includes full disassembly, degreasing, inspection, replacement of worn parts and relubrication. [16]
Remember the warranty rules before you open anything. Shimano says disassembled or modified reels do not qualify for warranty and that bearings are not covered. [10] KastKing excludes damage from disassembly or repair by anyone other than KastKing or an authorized center. [3]
What each brand asks you to send
Daiwa's reel service form asks you not to remove parts, to enclose proof of purchase and the completed form, to insure the package and keep tracking, and, from outside the continental US, to include a return label; out-of-warranty work starts only after you pay the estimate. [14] PENN asks for its repair form with the reel and says not to send cash. [16] Shimano requires a signed-in account to start a repair or warranty request and a dated receipt for warranty claims. [11] [10] KastKing asks for proof of purchase and photos or video through its contact channels and, after an initial assessment, tells you the estimated cost of any fees. [3]
Checklist for ordering the right part
Follow these steps in order; most wrong parts come from skipping the first two.
- Write down the full model name, size, letters and version from the reel or receipt. [8]
- Check whether the reel is still under warranty before opening it. [3] [10]
- Download the matching schematic: product manual (Piscifun), Manuals & Schematics page (KastKing), Spare Parts by model (Shimano), Parts Diagram link (Daiwa). [4] [2] [7] [12]
- Note the drawing reference and the part name; add the part number where the list gives one. [5] [1]
- Order with the model and part details in the note (KastKing) or by phone or parts shop (Daiwa, Shimano). [1] [13] [9]
- Compare the parts total with the brand's flat service rate before you do the job yourself. [3] [14] [16]
- Keep the order confirmation; KastKing cancels the order if the part is out of stock. [1]
Questions before you decide
Does KastKing sell replacement reel parts?
Yes. KastKing sells parts through a generic Reel Parts listing priced by part type, from $7.99 to $15.99 on 30 October 2026. You add the reel model, part number and a description in the order notes, and the parts team fills it manually.
Where do I find a schematic for my reel?
KastKing has a Manuals & Schematics page by model, Shimano organizes Spare Parts by reel model and version, Daiwa links a Parts Diagram & Owner's Manuals folder from its service page, and Piscifun's product manual PDFs include exploded diagrams.
How much does Daiwa charge to service a spinning reel?
Daiwa's reel service request form lists a $45 flat rate for spinning reels, $55 for baitcasting and conventional reels and $30 for fly and spincast, with additional charges possible beyond normal wear and tear.
Will replacing a part myself void the warranty?
It can. Shimano says disassembled or modified reels do not qualify for warranty, and KastKing excludes damage from disassembly or repair by anyone other than KastKing or an authorized service center.
