Our slotted tungsten beads are high quality metal coated in a variety of colors that don't easily chip or tarnish.
- Material: Made from tungsten, a dense metal that is significantly heavier than lead or brass alternatives, providing a compact application of weight.
- Design: The "slotted" design features a round hole on one side and a slot on the other. This allows the bead to be used with jig-style hooks, where the hook shank fits into the slot.
- Function: When tied onto a jig hook, the bead helps the fly ride with the hook point facing upward, which significantly reduces the chances of snagging on the riverbed.
- Application: They are primarily used for nymphing techniques in deep or fast-flowing water.
Slotted tungsten beads are perfect for adding weight to nymph or streamer patterns tied on jig hooks.
Available in sizes 1.5mm, 2mm, 2.4mm, 2.8mm, 3.2mm, 3.8mm, 4.6mm, 5.5mm & 6.4mm.
