Berkley x5 Braid 0.35mm 36.3kg 150m Low-Vis Green

Berkley x5 Braid 0.35mm 36.3kg — Cut through heavy cover with confidence

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

Built for heavy cover and vegetation

While 4-strand braids are popular, the x5 adds a fifth strand to create a line that's stronger, more reliable, and purpose-built to cut through weeds and thick vegetation. The 0.35 mm diameter handles 36.3 kg breaking strain, giving you the power to fish confidently around structure and heavy cover where big fish hide.

Optimal strength and abrasion resistance

Made from 100% PE fibers, the x5 Braid is designed for situations where durability matters. The 5-strand construction increases abrasion resistance compared to traditional 4-strand braids, letting you fish tight to snags, rocks, and wood without worrying about line failure at critical moments.
