ABSTRACT:
In a fishing reel, the drag stack includes the conventional star wheel and pressure plate that squeeze one or more friction member against the side of a rotatable member, such as the main gear to cause it to rotate with the pressure plate. However, instead of a washer of friction material, the friction member comprises small friction pads mounted on a carrier ring so as to be positioned symmetrically around the axis thereof, and to be engaged by the pressure plate. This leaves substantial areas of the pressure plate exposed for dissipation of heat.
