SEiGLER Reels are Made in Virginia and come with a Lifetime Warranty. They have very tight tolerances and excellent quality from the stainless steel gears to all aluminum housing to prevent galvanic corrosion.
Here is a very helpful video from SEiGLER Reels on how to teardown and clean a reel that has been exposed to saltwater. You can follow along to service your own, or if you’d rather not tear yours down you can simply send them back to the shop in VA, and for $30 they will thoroughly service your reel for you and get it back to you in about a week.
