BOCA RATON, Fla., March 28, 2019 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Reel in the Best: Boca Bearings Introduces "Boca Saltwater Series"

New Ceramic Hybrid Fishing Reel Bearings Feature Military Spec Stainless Steel that Resists Corrosion & Rust for Optimized Reel Performance

An industry leader in fishing reel bearing replacement for two decades, Boca Bearings is excited to announce a brand-new line of bearings for the fishing reel industry. The new "Boca Saltwater Series" ceramic hybrid fishing reel bearings are made with a special stainless steel, featuring silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramic balls resulting in bearings that last two to three times longer in saltwater environments than standard stainless steel bearings.

The new "Boca Saltwater Series" provides saltwater anglers with the solution to the age-old problem of bearings rusting out, as these ceramic hybrid fishing reel bearings feature military spec stainless steel that allows the bearing races, shields and retainers to resist corrosion for much greater durations than other steel bearings, resulting in optimized reel performance.

"Those who fish in saltwater environments know all too well that salt will corrode just about anything over time, even with proper cleaning and maintenance," said Boca Bearings President, Jason Flanzbaum. "Utilizing a steel bearing in saltwater inevitably results in a premature failure, where a chemically inert material like ceramic is far more conducive to that saltwater environment."

The silicon nitride (Si3N4) ceramic balls in the bearings play a significant role in extending the life and performance of this new series, as they are lighter than steel, have a frictionless glasslike surface and resist corrosion even in the harshest of environments. Indeed, "Boca Saltwater Series" bearings have been tested in an independent lab comprised of 192 hours of salt fog to reveal their extended life as compared to the more standard 440C stainless steel bearings on the market. The ceramic balls also allow these bearings to achieve 30 percent to 50 percent higher RPMs than standard steel bearings.

With a full range of aftermarket fishing reel bearings for brands like Shimano, Daiwa, Penn and Abu Garcia, Boca Bearings is "the overwhelming choice in fishing reel bearing replacement for the past two decades," according to Guy Harvey Magazine, and carries more than 8000 different bearings and in excess of 10 million bearings in stock.

To purchase "Boca Saltwater Series," visit BocaBearings.com.

In addition to introducing the new "Boca Saltwater Series" ceramic hybrid fishing reel bearings, Boca Bearings also has developed "Lightning Lube," a full line of lubrication to care for and compliment more standard fishing reel bearings. Specially designed to form a molecular bond with all moving metal parts within any application, "Lightning Lube" reduces friction, improves performance, decreases wear and extends life. It can be used when installing new bearings and components, or to preserve already existing ones. "Lightning Lube" products include:

  • Reel Power, which forms a molecular bond with any metal to fill in pits in the metal and provides a thin film coating that improves performance and reduces corrosion. It is recommended for all moving metal parts and comes in a handy 100-mL spray bottle.
  • Reel Grease Power improves performance, reduces heat, extends life and resists corrosion, and is available in a 2-ounce nozzle tube.

Also available via Boca Bearings:

  • High Speed Oil, with a viscosity of 1875/9CS, is beneficial to any application with an operating temperature extending from -50°F to +400°F.
