ABSTRACT:
A line-protecting element for use in a fishing reel having a line spool with at least one circular end wall, and a component with a circular-cylindrical surface enclosing the end wall at a radial distance therefrom, is to be mounted on the end wall to bridge the distance between this wall and the enclosing surface in order, when using the fishing reel, to prevent a line wound on the line spool from being wedged between the end wall and the enclosing surface. The line-protecting element consists of a ring of low-friction material having substantially radially projecting tongues distributed along the circumference of the ring. The tongues are so dimensioned as to be easily flexible in the circumferential direction of the ring, but rigid in its axial direction. The outer radius of the ring is smaller than the radius of the enclosing surface, whereas the radius at the free ends of the tongues is greater than the radius of the enclosing surface.
