KastKing® Fishing Reels Partner with Boca Bearings

Eposeidon’s KastKing® fishing reel manufacturing division will make several models available equipped with high performance ceramic Boca Bearings and kits to upgrade other KastKing® reels.

Garden City, Long Island, NY — KastKing® a division of Eposeidon, Inc. headquartered in Garden City, New York will manufacture three spinning reel models equipped with Boca Bearings. They will be select models within KastKing® ‘s bestselling fishing reels, the KastKing® Blade and the KastKing® Triton, and also an innovative new reel scheduled to be released later this year. The models fitted with Boca ceramic hybrid bearings as original equipment will carry the same name, but will have a separate “Magnum” designation.

KastKing® and Boca Bearings, based in Boynton Beach, Florida will also offer bearing kits for those who want to upgrade their KastKing® baitcasting or spinning reels to state-of-the-art high performance ceramic hybrid bearings, or premium steel bearings produced by Boca. Replacement Boca Bearing kits will initially be available for KastKing® Blade 3000, Triton 2500 spinning reels, KastKing® LMA 200 and Royale RS1000 low profile baitcasting reels and all sizes of the KastKing® RXA conventional reel.

“There’s only a couple of manufacturers building boutique reels with ceramic bearings as OE. Those reels sell for $400 or more. Since KastKing® already offers affordable reels with a proven track record, even with the addition of Boca ceramic hybrid bearings; they will be well within the reach of anglers who are looking for ultimate performance on a budget” says Tom Gahan marketing director at Eposeidon. “The performance of Boca’s ceramic hybrid bearings is incredible. It’s all about taking a good KastKing® reel and making it outstanding with Boca Bearings. We are excited about teaming up with Boca; they are an excellent company.”

Boca Bearing Kits for KastKing® reels will range from Econo Power Fishing Reel Bearing Kits, which are the most affordable way to replace and upgrade stock bearings, to Lightning Ceramic Hybrid ABEC#5 kits, an upgrade from stainless steel bearings, to the top of the line Orange Seal ABEC#7 ceramic hybrid bearings, which have a non-contact rubber seal allowing the bearing to spin freely without any excess drag.

“20 years ago we were excited to be the first company to bring ceramic bearing technology to the fishing reel market, what we didn’t expect was the movement it would become,” says Boca Bearing’s president, Allen Baum. “We are thrilled to be a part of this great industry that continues to grow and evolve. We are especially thrilled these days to see the youth angler programs growing by leaps and bounds. The future looks bright and we are happy to be a small part of something amazing. With over 8000 products and 27 years in the business, the expert staff at Boca Bearings has you covered.”
