Further, the use of keyed washers allows the reel to increase the drag pressure upto about 20 percent. Overall, the drag system of this Penn Battle 2 is absolutely amazing.
Bearings
The Penn Battle 2 series uses five stainless steel ball bearings. These ball bearings are of stainless steel and because of this, they provide extra protection from corrosion or damage from saltwater.
So, being stainless steel in nature makes these ball bearings more durable and effective. Apart from this, the Battle 2 fishing reel is also equipped with an instant anti-reverse feature.
This instant anti-reverse feature basically eliminates the back play of the reel and all of this is accomplished by using a one-way bearing design in the reel.
Bail wire and spool
This Battle 2 series by Penn also has an extra heavy duty bail wire. This bail wire can definitely stand the test of time and is quite durable.
Further, this reel also has line capacity rings on its spool. These lines on the spool generally provide the angler with the information of about how much line is left or is remaining on the spool.
