Cahira Nitinol Single Strand Wire 5m Coil
£7.00 inc. tax
5m of Nitinol Fishing Wire. Supplied Coiled. This is a great wire material for end traces, stingers and uptraces.
All crimped traces should be triple passed to avoid slippage!
6lb/2.7kg 0.21mm. The finest wire in my range. A brilliant bite proof trace for Perch, Chub and Eels when finesse is the order of the day for UL lures and other very small baits. Knots brilliantly with a 3 turn blood knot and crimps very well with 0.6mm Crimps with the standard triple pass method.
12lb/5kg 0.26mm. Perfect as a Jack proof trace when fishing for Perch, Chub or Eels, or just for more finesse methods and light lures, such as the Ned Rig.
Knot using a 2-3t bloodknot or crimp with a 0.6mm single sleeve crimp.
24lb/10kg 0.35mm. A great all-round trace for light to medium sized lures when targeting Pike, or larger Perch, Chub and Zander lures, stingers and baits. My go-to gauge for general lure fishing.
Knot using a 2-3t bloodknot or crimp with a 0.8mm single sleeve crimp.
40lb/18kg 0.43mm. Another well rounded gauge. Ideal for medium/large Pike lures and stingers. Can also help get lighter baits down to depth quicker. This is also great for one hook live/deadbaiting traces for small/medium baits up to about 4oz.
Knot using a 2-3t bloodknot or crimp with a 1mm single sleeve or 0.8mm double barreled crimp.
This gauge can benefit with a light heat treatment to the loop after forming.
Briefly waft a lighter under the loop until it moves and relaxes. Do NOT let it go red. This releases the tension in the material.
66lb/30kg 0.56mm. Brilliant for heavy Pike lures, uptraces and bait traces for larger baits when targeting Pike, Catfish and even Tope.
Knot using a 2-3t bloodknot or crimp with a 1.2mm double barreled crimp.
This gauge can benefit with a light heat treatment to the loop after forming.
Briefly waft a lighter under the loop until it moves and relaxes. Do NOT let it go red. This releases the tension in the material.
100lb/45kg 0.7mm
Perfect for jerkbait traces.
Not suitable for knotting.
Specialist wire. Hard to work with but bombproof when done correctly. Requires patience and consistency.
Test thoroughly before using a new trace.
Crimp with a 1.2mm double barreled crimp. I recommend 2 each end. Matches well with #6 Securelocks and 1/0 Crane Swivels.

Properties: - Dead straight memory wire. - Highly resistant to kinking. - Black Oxide finish. - Superelastic property that allows 5-10% elongation under extreme or sudden load. Returns to its' original length without damage, giving a cushioning effect to connections and knots. - Resistant to tangling and wrapping itself round branches, ropes, railings etc. - Will not corrode. Please check crimps, hooks, swivels, split rings and snaps every session. - Can be knotted or crimped. Technically the 66lb and 100lb can be knotted but I highly recommend crimping these heavy gauges.
*Single strand wire is NOT suitable for multihook traces! Please choose a multistrand variation for multiple hook trace building!
