The 2.3mm slotted tungsten beads are for small flies like micro nymphs and buzzers. We love to present to our fly tiers our top-quality Slotted Tungsten Beads, specifically made with high tungsten purity (wolfram over 97%). The slotted beads are designed for jig hooks, the innovative small slotted design ensures a perfect fit and secure placement on your favourite jig hooks.
Our environmentally-friendly tungsten beads offer superior weight, almost 2 times compared with lead weight and 4 times compared with brass. Slotted beads are the go-to choice for jig hooks. Their specialized design enables easy sliding over the angled eye of the jig, allowing the hook to run upside-down during presentation. This innovative tying method significantly reduces the risk of snagging on the river bottom.
Equip yourself with the finest fly tying materials and elevate your creations to new heights. Discover the power of quality tungsten beads.
