ECSM Exposed Blank Casting Reel Seat
Product Details
The ECSM reel seat is more than just another exposed blank seat, Importantly, each reel seat has a blank exposed area so that your finger comes in direct contact with the blank for maximum sensitivity, but the design also allows for great stability and comfort. More than 20% lighter than FUJI's other lightweight casting reel seats, it has a 7.9 degree offset, which reduces fatigue and provides for greater comfort when palming a reel. As with other FUJI reel seats, it sports a lock tight nut system and exclusive S4™ stainless steel cushioned hoods.
Available in Frosted Silver, Black and Gunsmoke.

Fits as expected
I trimmed about .5 inch off the threads to fit the reel perfect and be able to have my finger easily on the blank while holding. This is my favorite casting seat
The seat is light and fit the rod great. The customer liked the feel and was very happy with the rod.
Nice light weight seat fits great and looks good!
Paired well with my phenix 7'4 rod with a carbon grip.
This my favorite reel seat for my bass fishing rods
I would recommend this reel seat to anyone that is looking for a cheap and affordable nice looking reel seat.
Weighs .864oz
The best yet. Even lighter than some “light weight” seats. I’ve used it on all my casting rods for years.
Very nice excited to try out my new set up on walleyes
These rubber winding check are good quality.
I have used these before and really like the fit and the design of the blank contact point my point finger is right there and is not twisted to make contact to the rod blank that is exposed
Great reel seat, nice and light.
I've built 7 rods with these ECSM seats, and I'm getting ready to order another one. They're comfortable, light, and durable. The exposed blank feature and direct contact between the seat and the blank also make them very sensitive. I buy 0.5-mm smaller than I need and ream to fit tightly with 150-grit sand paper wrapped around a piece of rod blank. I also form a masking tape bushing on top of thin paper that I can press into the top of the reel seat so that it has two areas of contact for stability.
The threads on the reel seat could be a bit longer. I also ordered a locking nut to help secure the reel within the seat. The threads were too short to allow this. I ended up moving the foregrip ahead to allow room for the lock nut. This left a gap between the reel seat and the foregrip. It works but is not ideal. It looks a little strange.
This reel seat worked perfectly for the rod I'm building. Mudhole has an awesome selection of rod building supplies.
What size Fuji expose reel seat would fit a medium heavy action rod
Hey Richard, the ECSM reel seat that would work for you would be determined by the outside diameter of the rod, at the point you would like the reel seat to sit on the rod. Once we have that measurement we will be able to provide you with the reel seat size that would work best for you. - Mud Hole
Is this reel seat an arbor less design like the ACS
Yes, this reel seat has a similar arbor less design as the ACS reel seat. - Mud Hole
Are these reamable in case it's not a perfect fit? I want to put it on a North Fork blank.
Thanks
These reel seats can be sanded out a little bit to make for a better fit - Mud Hole
how do I know what reel seat size to order.
Hey Hutch, The reel seat size that you need is going to be determined by the outside diameter of the blank at the location that you plan on mounting the reel seat. We do have charts that go over the measurements of the MHX rod blanks. If you are looking for a size needed for a blank that we carry, then give our customer service team a call and we will be happy to get that measurement for you. -Mud Hole
