Do you know where I can find these slide rings: Fuji FRS-25?

Hello,

I'm looking for these specific Fuji slide rings for mounting the reel on a plain cork handle: Fuji Ring Seat in size 25 (I.D. 25 mm). They are sold in pairs. I need them for my Tennesse-style handles. I searched all over the Internet. Their code is Fuji FRS-25. I know that Fuji doesn't produce them anymore... but I hope that there are a few pairs left in some old stocks. If you know where I can find them, please let me know. I also posted in the Classified area, you can see the picture there.

Thank you,
Andrei

Custom Tackle has what your looking for I believe. I think they are in the Tennessee handle kit section, listed as a 1 inch slip ring which is somewhere around 25 mm.

Looks like I mis-spoke after seeing your picture, which looks like your rings are more tapered both ends and have a trim band. The ones I've used had a knurled spot on both sides where you would slip them up, or down and were more blunt on the offside from the reel foot.

This style has a cam-lock feature. I was surprised that Fuji had dropped them from the line-up. I sold the last one I had last summer to Dragos Vina.

Yes, these slide rings do have a very smart cam-lock system, and they hold the reel very well. Unfortunately, so far I didn't find them. Actually, Dragos Bina is a fishing buddy of mine :). If anyone have these rings in stock, please e-mail me. Thanks alot!

No problem :))))... as in Romanian, "Vina" means something like "extreme strength" or "vigor"... one of our friends even calls him "Vina" instead of Bina from time to time :))).

I wish you had more of those slide rings... so far, no luck in finding them.
