These are anodized in silver, black or gold.
Small T-bars are only $26.00
Deluxe T-bars are only $32.00
Jumbo T-bar knobs are only $38.000
Molded large black handles are $20.00
Round anodized knobs are available in two sizes, and are only $22.00
Round anodized deluxe knobs are 2", silver/black $22
Round Eva grip knobs are available in three sizes, and are $20.00
I also have some handle blanks (arms) in black anodized that work great on extending the arm on many reels. A shimano TLD and Penn 4/0 really benefit from the extended arm and larger handle. The arms are only $12 each.
Please note: round knobs unscrew around the circumference (middle) of the handle. this exposes the shaft and pin so they can be tightened. THEY MUST BE KEPT TIGHT. Failure to do so can result in the outer part of the knob being lost., My supplier will not sell me those pieces! I have to charge you for a replacement knob if yours comes apart!
Pick out a T-bar or pick out a knob. Add a handle blank if needed. I can ship up to four sets in a small flat rate box for $8. Contact me via PM and give me a heads up and Paypal contact info, I will send you an invoice and ship the same day if before noon...!
My labor charge to drill out a knob while a reel is in for service....$8









My assortment of T-bars...regular, deluxe and jumbo..

If buying a knob only, existing knob has to be drilled and removed and the new knob installed...
I am doing that as part of a deal that includes a cleaning. A cleaning on your Trinidad is only $30. That includes a drag and bearing service with the cleaning. I can also do a carbon-tex drag upgrade for $16.
The small T-handle knob is a good fit for a 30 size reel.
Thanks, Rick!

What are the shaft and overall knob diameters on the round knobs?
Can you tell me how much thread less area the shaft has where it goes thru the handle?
Maybe you could post a pic of the round knob's component parts with a ruler in the pic for some scale.. That could show me what I'm wondering about.
Thinking about replacing the rubbers here.

It takes a 1/4" diameter hole for the knob to mount to your handle. The thickness is not that important, asit is mounted using a screw from the back side of the handle. Loctite must be used on the screw threads.
Here is the manufacturers instructions for mounting the knob on an existing handle....
There are 2 basic parts to all power handles; the knob and the handle
blank.
First, remove the Philips head screw from the bottom of the knob.
Keep the washer on the internal knob screw as the washer is
positioned between the knob and the handle; not between the knob
and the Philips head screw.
To attach the knob to the handle blank, you must unscrew the two
halves of the knob. Place a normal screw driver into the bottom half of
the knob and use the screw driver to push the internal screw past the
bottom of the knob.
Place a small amount of Loctite (medium strength) into the opening of
the internal screw.
Attach the Philips head screw thru the handle blank into the knob.
With the normal screw driver inserted into the bottom of the knob to
prevent rotation, tighten the Philips head screw.
If the knob seems loosely attached to the handle blank, you should
tighten the internal screw while keeping the external Philips heads
from rotating with the use of the Philips head screw driver.
Use of Round Power Knob with Most Reels.
The Power Knob, without handle blank, can be installed on most reels,
both conventional and spinning reels by drilling out the retaining rivet
of your existing reel knob. In most cases, a 3/16”drill bit will do the
job. Then the Power Knob is easily attached.
I will get a picture posted up today...

Wow....the knob sales have been more than I expected...and I am going to extend the offer of a discount thru the next month!!
I am also expanding my line and dropping the price of the large T-handles from $39.95 down to $34.95.
I will also offer the 10% discount for the Christmas season...even without a reel service.....
If you intend to do your own work.....PLEASE READ THE ABOVE POST ON INSTALLATION!!
However, I am now going to list handles as well as knobs. More to be reported on next posting!!
Here is a pic of a larger handle as well as a new knob!

The knobs again..

A forum member has sent me a handful of Toriums....and we are doing silver round knobs.....

Yes...any of the knobs will fit those reels..But I think the small black T-handle or the small black round knob would look good on those gunmetal grey Saaragosas...
The saltist would take either..and look good with either black or silver...
