Berkley x5 Braid 0.40mm 45.6kg 150m Flame Green

Berkley x5 Braid 0.40mm 45.6kg 150m Flame Green — extra strength for heavy cover

This heavy-duty 5-carrier braid delivers exceptional breaking strain and abrasion resistance when you need to haul big fish out of thick vegetation.

Built with a fifth strand for superior durability

Berkley x5 Braid takes conventional 4-strand PE braids to the next level by adding a fifth carrier. The result is a line engineered for optimal strength and toughness that stands up to demanding conditions where other braids fail.

Fish heavy cover with confidence

The robust 0.40 mm (0.016 in) diameter and 45.6 kg breaking strain let you power fish through dense weeds, timber, and heavy structure. The Flame Green colour offers high visibility above water for better bite detection and line management.
