Berkley x5 Braid 12.1kg 150m Flame Green

Berkley x5 Braid 12.1 kg 150 m Flame Green — 5-strand power for heavy cover

The Berkley x5 Braid takes conventional PE braided line to the next level with a 5-strand construction that delivers exceptional strength and abrasion resistance for fishing in thick vegetation and heavy cover.

Built for heavy cover and dense vegetation

While 4-strand braids are popular, the x5 adds a fifth strand to boost durability and cutting power. This 5-carrier construction gives you the confidence to fish aggressively in weed beds, lily pads, and timber without worrying about break-offs. The 100% PE fibres provide excellent knot strength and minimal stretch (0.12%) for direct contact with your lure and instant hook sets.

Optimal strength and abrasion resistance

The x5 Braid is engineered for situations where your line takes a beating. The additional strand increases surface contact and distributes load more evenly, making it highly resistant to fraying on rocks, mussels, and sharp vegetation. With a breaking strain of 12.1 kg at 0.12 mm diameter, this line offers a strong balance of castability and power for medium to heavy predator fishing.
