Product information "Rio Powerflex Strong Tippet 30 yds Spool Leader material"
Rio is a renowned American manufacturer of premium fly lines and leader materials and stands worldwide for the highest quality, well thought-out product solutions and reliable performance on the water.
Rio Powerflex Strong Tippet is one of the most supple and at the same time knot-strongest nylon tippet materials. It has been specially developed to combine maximum knot strength with high flexibility. The particularly supple material ensures smooth handling and enables extremely strong knots - even with fine diameters.
Thanks to the outstanding strength-to-diameter ratio, Powerflex Strong offers impressive load-bearing capacity with a comparatively small diameter. This allows the fly to be presented more naturally, while at the same time providing sufficient reserves during the fight. The balanced material structure reduces memory and ensures clean unwinding and easy knot adjustments on the water.
Supplied on a 30 yds (27.4 m) spool, this tippet offers sufficient material for numerous leader combinations and is ideal for demanding situations in rivers and lakes.
