Reel Clamps

Avet Reel Clamp Kits are precision-machined from the same 6061-T6 aircraft-grade billet aluminum as Avet reels themselves, providing a strong, corrosion-resistant connection between your reel and rod. Available in three kit types across three reel size classes, with colored clamp kits offered in multiple anodized finishes to match your reel.

Important: These clamp kits do NOT fit SXJ Raptor or HXJ reels. All other clamps fit Raptor and G2 series reels. HX clamp kits cover the full HX series including HXJ and HXW. Colors may vary and photos may not represent color accurately.

Best For

Offshore trolling, stand-up big-game fishing, conventional reel setups, saltwater bottom fishing, and anglers looking to replace or color-match clamp hardware on their Avet SX, MXJ, MXL, JX, LX, HX, or EX series reels. 

Tackle Express Tips:

• If you're fishing a deckhand rod, you must have a clamp since there is not reel seat.  The Duran's Clamp will hold the reel better than the standard Avet Clamp.
• Put a little grease on the threads to make sure it seats into the reel tightly and reduces corosion.
• If you lost the screws, we also sell just the screws so you don't have to buy the entire clamp kit.
• The EX Clamp Kit also fits the JX, HX, and HXW reels but has an added hole to the side of the clamp.  This is originally used for a trolling strap but can be used to secure your hook or lure while not fishing.

Kit Types

• Screw Set — Replacement screws only. Fits SX, MXJ, MXL reels.
• Stud and Nut Set — Replacement studs and nuts only. Fits JX, LX, HX or EX reels (select correct size).
• Colored Clamp Kit — Full clamp with hook/jig holder (no screws or tools included). Available in multiple anodized colors. 1 kit per bag.

Mini Kit

The mini kit comes with smaller screw sets and a shallow dish for smaller diameter rods. Such as UC Rods, Calstar 800 and Seeker 270’s.

Large Kit

The large kit comes with longer screw sizes and a deeper dish for larger diameter rods. Such as Seeker Uluas, 6480’s, 540’s, Phenix HAF, and most 9-10ft jig sticks

The Mini Super Clamp is the first clamp of its kind designed to fit smaller reels on skinnier rods. It fits reels that do not come with stock clamps where an aftermarket attachment is a necessity to mount on a deckhand rod. It fits the Lexa 300, Tranx 300, Avet SXJ(non raptor), Trinidad 12 and Trinidad 16NA to name a few. These reels do not come with a stock clamp and have been an issue mounting on deckhand rods for years. With constant requests we took the challenge and now created a clamp for theses smaller reels. While the clamp is extremely versatile it has its limitations on the diameter rod it can be mounted on. The clamp is designed to fit rod diameters between 1 1/8″ – 7/8″ (28MM- 22MM) which is appropriate for the reel class size 10-25lb rods. Some rod examples are Seeker 196,270, Calstar 800XL, 800L Phenix M1.

Mini Super Clamp Kit Fits:

Shimano: Tranx 300 and 500, Trinidad 10-20 and 16NA, Torium 14-20.

Daiwa: Lexa 300, Saltiga 10-400, Saltist 15-40.

The Cork Puppy Reel Clamp is designed for west coast jig fishermen and long-cast anglers using deckhand-style rods with no reel seat. These rods require a rod clamp to mount the reel, and the Cork Puppy solves that problem cleanly — locking the reel in place without twisting, turning, or crushing the blank, in a low-profile design that keeps the setup comfortable and balanced for longer casts.

Machined from 6061-T6 aluminum with type II anodizing. Available in three sizes measured by the rod's diameter at the intended mount point.

Key Features

• Locks reel in place — won't twist or turn
• Won't crush the blank
• Low profile — comfortable, balanced feel
• Machined 6061-T6 aluminum with type II anodizing
• 3 sizes: 25mm, 28mm, 31mm
• Color: Black only

Size Guide

Measure the rod's diameter at the point where you intend to mount the reel. To convert inches to mm, multiply by 25.4. If you don't have calipers, wrap a piece of string around the rod at the mount point, mark where it meets, measure the length, and divide by 3.14 to get the diameter.
