Glitch Oil EVO-2000 is a very high viscosity oil (rating 2000) for heavy load points, the worm shaft and spool bearings on reels for heavy lures from 12 to 250 g.

It protects under heavy load and keeps the reel smooth and quiet. Made for big baits, catfish and power fishing.

Viscosity

Where this oil sits.

Thin oil lets the spool spin freely, which suits light lures. Thick oil damps the spool and protects under heavy loads.

Glitch Oil

EVO-2000: very high viscosity for 12 to 250 g lures.

The oil decides how a bearing feels. Thin oil lets the spool start early and spin long. Thicker oil calms the spool and stays in place under load. This one sits at 2000 on the viscosity scale.

What makes it different

The thickest oil in the range

EVO-2000 is an ultra high viscosity power oil, four times as thick as EVO-500. It comes with a dropper and a brush, so you can spread it on gears and the level wind as well.

Where it goes

What EVO-2000 is made for.

  • Heavy Load Points

    Thick enough to stay put where parts carry load, instead of being pressed out.

  • Wormshaft

    A drop along the worm shaft keeps the line guide travelling smoothly from side to side.

  • Spool Bearings

    One small drop per spool bearing. That is all it takes. More oil only slows the spool down.

What you get on the spool

  • Heavy Load Protection

    The film holds under pressure and protects the bearing when things get heavy.

  • Smooth & Quiet

    The oil film takes the edge off the bearing noise. The reel runs calmer.

Works with

  • Shielded bearings (ZZ)
  • Stock steel bearings

How to oil

One drop. Three steps.

  1. Clean firstOld oil and grease have to come out. Fresh oil on top of old residue does not help.
  2. One small dropTouch the dropper to the bearing and let one drop run in. Not more.
  3. Spin and wipeTurn the bearing a few times so the oil spreads, then wipe off what comes out.

Good to know: one drop costs a little free spin compared with a dry bearing. You see it in a spin test, you barely notice it on the water. In return the bearing runs quieter and lasts longer. Core bearings come greased and need no oil.

FAQ

Questions about reel oil

Which oil goes with which bearing?

For Apex we use High spec, for Edge Tumble Weed. Core bearings come greased and need no oil. For stock bearings pick by lure weight: the lighter your lures, the thinner the oil. The scale on this page shows where each oil sits.

Tumble Weed €29,95
How much oil does a bearing need?

One small drop per bearing. More oil does not protect better, it only brakes the spool and collects dirt.

Does oil slow the spool down?

A little. A dry ceramic bearing spins longest in a spin test. With one drop you lose a bit of free spin, which you barely notice on the water. In return the bearing runs quieter and lasts longer.

When should I oil again?

When the spool gets louder or the free spin drops. After a trip in rain, salt or sand it is worth cleaning the spool bearings and giving them a fresh drop.
