VMC 3560 Split Ring 12.5mm 25kg 8

VMC 3560 Split Ring Size 9 — Corrosion-Proof Stainless for Demanding Conditions

The VMC 3560 stainless steel split ring combines 25 kg strength with rust-proof durability, making it the reliable choice for saltwater lures and long-term rigging.

Built for Saltwater and Freshwater Extremes

Stainless steel construction resists corrosion from saltwater spray, humid tackle boxes, and repeated exposure. These rings maintain smooth operation and full strength even after months in your rotation, eliminating the rust spots and weakened coils that plague standard carbon steel hardware.

Strong Enough for Medium to Heavy Lures

With a 25 kg breaking strength and 12.5 mm diameter, size 9 handles crankbaits, swimbaits, and saltwater plugs that demand robust connections. The 0.67 g weight adds negligible mass while the dual-coil design distributes load evenly, preventing the ring from opening under hard strikes or sustained pressure from powerful fish.
