FIRELINE Ultra 8 delivers a line that is strong and abrasion resistant yet long casting and user friendly, and capable of resisting wind knots. Optimised for spin reels, Fireline Ultra 8 is great for all light to medium lure fishing applications.
The fusing process uses heat to molecularly bind thousands of Dyneema fibres to give Fireline Ultra 8 what the manufacturer claims is more body than regular braids, along with unique handling properties and manageability. More tolerant of line twist than soft braids, Fireline Ultra 8 performs well on spinning reels with less loose loops and less wind knots.
The manufacturers say that the 8 strand fusing process also gives Fireline Ultra 8 several other significant advantages:
- Fireline Ultra 8 is four times more abrasion resistant than original Fireline, standing up to structure such as mangroves, barnacles, reef and wrecks.
- Rounder and smoother, Fireline Ultra 8 casts 10% further than traditional Fireline expanding your fishing zone.
- Fireline Ultra 8 retains knot strength and near zero stretch delivering a telegraphic feel for structure and strikes.
- The fusing process produces a round profile that resists digging into the spool under heavy loads and never separates like many braids.
In summary,the new Fireline Ultra 8 uses 8 thermally-fused braid strands to create a line that is said to be four times more abrasion resistant than traditional Fireline, while casting 10% further and retaining the same Fireline sensitivity and manageability.
