PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a component of a fishing reel capable of improving specific strength and specific rigidity even if a load is applied not only in a bending direction but also in shearing, longitudinal and twisting directions and the like.SOLUTION: A component of a fishing reel is molded of fiber reinforced resin in which short fibers, each having a circular cross section, an average fiber diameter of 4-7 μm and an average fiber length of 1.5-4.0 mm, are immersed in matrix resin in a range of 30-60 mass%. In a cross sectional view in a right angle direction relative to the longitudinal direction, a first layer 10 with a large proportion of short fibers having an approximately circular shape with a short-long axial length ratio of 1:1-1:1.155 is formed on a surface layer side, and a second layer 11 which includes a large amount of short fibers oriented randomly compared to the short fibers of the first layer 10 is formed on the inner layer side of the first layer. |
