Berkley x5 Braid 0.25mm 18.1kg 150m Low-Vis Green

Berkley x5 Braid 0.25mm 18.1kg 150m — Reliable 5-Strand Power for Heavy Cover

The Berkley x5 Braid takes conventional PE (Polyethylene) braided line to the next level with a 5-strand construction that delivers exceptional strength and abrasion resistance for fishing in demanding conditions.

Engineered for Strength and Durability

While 4-strand braids are popular, the x5 adds a fifth strand for superior reliability. This 0.25mm line offers 18.1kg breaking strain—equivalent to 12lb monofilament diameter—giving you the confidence to target larger fish without sacrificing castability. Made from 100% PE fibers, it combines thin diameter with serious pulling power.

Fish Heavy Cover with Confidence

Designed specifically for abrasion resistance, the x5 Braid cuts through weeds and vegetation where fish hide. The Low-Vis Green color blends naturally in all water types, while the uncoated 5-strand weave resists fraying against rocks, timber, and dense cover. Whether you're fishing lily pads, submerged structure, or heavy brush, this line won't let you down.
