A comprehensive, high-tensile terminal tackle solution designed to provide a bite-proof connection between your lure and leader when targeting Australia’s most aggressive, toothy species.
The Halco Lockweld Wire Kit is a staple for offshore and estuary anglers who refuse to lose expensive lures to sharp teeth. Built around Halco’s legendary Lockweld technology, this nylon-coated stainless steel wire is designed to be heat-welded or crimped, providing a permanent and incredibly strong bond. Unlike standard multi-strand wires that can fray or kink easily, Lockweld remains supple enough to allow your lures to maintain their natural swimming action while offering a near-impenetrable barrier against Mackerel, Wahoo, and Tailor. This kit provides everything a serious fisher needs to rig up in the boat or at the workbench, ensuring you stay connected when that trophy fish strikes.
Key Features
-
Nylon-Coated Stainless Steel: Provides a smooth, abrasion-resistant exterior that protects the multi-strand core from saltwater corrosion and jagged teeth.
-
Lockweld Heat-Sealable Technology: Designed specifically to be fused together using a lighter or heat source, creating a streamlined, low-profile connection without the bulk of traditional crimps.
-
Superior Kink Resistance: The high-tensile wire core is engineered to remain straighter for longer, even after multiple strikes or high-speed trolling sessions.
-
Supple Action: Maintains enough flexibility to ensure your bibbed minnows or surface poppers retain their intended vibration and swim.
-
Comprehensive Kit Contents: Includes a generous spool of wire along with a selection of matching crimps to suit various line classes.
-
Low-Visibility Finishes: Finished in dark, non-reflective tones to reduce underwater flash and prevent wire-shy fish from spooking in clear water.
-
High Weight-to-Diameter Ratio: Offers incredible breaking strains while maintaining a thin, stealthy profile that doesn't compromise lure depth.
Best For
-
Mackerel and Wahoo Specialists: Who require a dependable bite leader that can withstand high-speed trolling runs and razor-sharp serrated teeth.
-
Reef Fishers: Targeting species like Red Bass or Coral Trout where abrasive coral and sharp gill plates frequently cause bust-offs.
-
Lure Trollers: Who want a neat, welded finish that doesn't catch weed or debris like traditional twisted wire loops.
