Fluoroflex®
Plus Tippet Material |
|
| |
|
| This exceptional
leader and tippet material is made from 100% fluorocarbon (PVDF).
Fluoroflex® Plus is the strongest, thinnest fluorocarbon on the market
with an incredible strength, for example, 5 lb for 5x material. It
is a slightly softer material than Fluoroflex and ties excellent knots |
|
| The refractory
index (1.42) of Fluoroflex Plus in water (1.33), compared to nylon
(1.62) makes it almost invisible to fish. Fluoroflex Plus, with a
density of 1.72 (compared to nylon of 1.15), sinks quicker and gets
below the surface tension for more effective dry fly, nymph and wet fly
fishing. |

Available in diameters 2x thru 6x –
