440SSg Notes
Penn used the same mold (stamped 27-4400-1) for the 440SSg that they used for the last runs of the 4400SS rather than go to the expense of making an entirely new mold for the 440SSg rotor.
The current version of the 27-440g includes a brass balance weight. Our unconfirmed assumption is the grinding down on the underside is because they changed OTHER parts in the 440SSg housing/internals underneath the rotor compared to the older 4400SS and therefore needed a little more room for those changes. If you are installing it on the 440SSg there is zero issues with the rotor because it was literally redesigned for the 440SSg.4400SS backward compatibility notes
NOTE: Penn made a conversion kit with some extra parts this rotor is in a kit 27-440GSP without the brass weight, that can be used on the older 4400ss reels, but only those that have the newer ratchet / dog with the wraparound spring. See the kit for more info for the 4400SS

11/30/2024 This is the spot if you fix Penn reels. What a awesome shop. Great website. Schematics of reels on hand with available parts list. Best shop around. Since you can't walk into Penn reels in Philly anymore, this is the next best thing. Thanks for your services!!!!! Even parts for vintage reels. Delivery is super quick as well.
10/23/2024 Easy to order parts and they shipped fast. Great seller! Hope to do business with them again! If you do not find what you are looking for do a Google search with Mystic Reel Parts in the search with your model. I have a Penn 285 and 9 and it took me to the exact page for both. Also have the reel schematics.

I luckily found MysticParts via a Google search. Their website is comprehensive and I was at a loss on what I needed. Fortunately the “contact us” option was user friendly. To my delight I got a personalized and VERY helpful response right away. She asked questions to fully understand my needs and then followed up with links to the right parts. We continued our email exchange regarding my second reel issue and, again, she was extremely knowledgeable and gave me both practical as well as professional solutions.
If you need reel parts and assistance with repair and maintenance, do not hesitate to work with them.
