Thinking Anglers Tungsten 5mm Top Bead

Description

The Thinking Anglers Tungsten 5mm Top Bead is designed for use in carp fishing, specifically as a key component in leadcore or lead-free helicopter rig setups. Constructed from tungsten, a notably dense and durable material, these beads are intended to help pin down terminal tackle effectively. Each bead features a 5mm round tungsten body with a piece of silicone in the centre. This design incorporates a crucial safety aspect: under sufficient pressure, the tungsten bead is able to pull free from the silicone. This allows the rig to slide off the leader, which is vital in the event of a crack-off or line breakage, helping to prevent fish from becoming tethered. The precise ratio of bead to silicone is designed for both safety and functionality. Key features of the Thinking Anglers Tungsten 5mm Top Bead include: - 5mm tungsten bead with a silicone centre - Designed for use as a top bead in helicopter setups, including leadcore and lead-free configurations - Silicone allows the bead to pull free under pressure for rig safety - Tungsten material aids in pinning down the rig - Supplied in packs of 8
