Tidy, secure connections on carp rigs
incl. VAT, excl.
Choose according to hook thickness and hooklink material. The 2 mm tube suits finer hooks and thinner hooklinks, while 2.5 mm and 3 mm suit heavier rigs. Select the starting diameter to match the components you need to cover before shrinking.
It is intended for freshwater carp rigs, including hair rigs, chod rigs and stiff rigs. The tube contracts around connections to provide a firm finish at the hook shank, so choose the diameter for your hook and hooklink rather than by rig name alone. No specific saltwater recommendation is supplied.
Thread it over the connection first, then apply boiling water or steam so it contracts around the rig. Avoid a lighter because its heat is harder to control. This lets you finish the connection after positioning the tube.
No, each pack contains 10 tubes in one selected diameter. Choose 2 mm, 2.5 mm or 3 mm for the rigs you plan to build, rather than expecting an assortment of sizes.

Fox Edges Naturals Shrink Tube is heat-shrink tubing for finishing and stabilising connections around hook shanks and hooklinks on carp rigs. Heating the tube with boiling water or steam makes it contract around the connection for a close, tidy fit. It is intended for freshwater carp fishing on gravel pits, lakes and rivers.
The tubing can be used when building hair rigs, chod rigs and stiff rigs wherever a firm finish around the hook shank is needed. Each pack contains 10 tubes in the selected diameter for preparing several rigs, either at home or on the bank.
The range offers 2 mm, 2.5 mm and 3 mm diameters. Choose according to the thickness of the hook and hooklink material. The 2 mm version suits finer hooks and thinner hooklinks, while 2.5 mm and 3 mm provide larger starting diameters for heavier rigs. The relevant difference is the diameter before heating, rather than a different intended rig type.
Thread the tube onto the connection before heating it with boiling water or steam. Avoid a lighter, as its heat is harder to control. The stated application is freshwater carp fishing, with no specific recommendation supplied for saltwater use.
