Berkley x9 Braid 0.25mm 150m 18.1kg Crystal

Berkley x9 Braid 0.25mm 150m 18.1kg Crystal — Superior casting distance and smoothness

The Berkley x9 Braid in Crystal takes braided line performance to the next level with a unique 9-strand construction made from 100% PE fibers. This 0.25mm line combines exceptional strength with a smooth profile for effortless, long-distance casting.

Enhanced strength through 9-strand construction

While 8-strand braids have become the standard, Berkley adds a ninth strand to the x9 Braid for improved reliability and strength. This additional fiber creates a rounder, more stable line that handles abrasion better and delivers consistent performance across all water types.

Smooth and quiet casting performance

The refined surface of the x9 Braid glides through rod guides with minimal friction, enabling longer casts with less effort. The smooth finish also reduces line noise during the cast, helping you stay stealthy when targeting wary fish.
