They are single assist hooks for saltwater slow jigging with heavy jigs, pirks and other large artificial lures. Choose the hook size to suit your lure and method, as no specific compatible lure-weight range is supplied.
The differences are hook size and listed weight: 1 at 0.82 g, 1/0 at 0.97 g, 2/0 at 1.3 g and 3/0 at 1.9 g. Choose between the smaller, lighter and larger, heavier hooks to suit your lure. All four share the same design and cord specifications.
The 130 lb rating (approximately 59 kg) applies to the assist braid, while 8 lb (approximately 3.6 kg) applies to the fluorocarbon core that helps prevent tangles. Neither figure is a supplied load rating for the complete hook assembly, so do not use it as a maximum fish-weight limit.
No. The TI tin coating provides corrosion protection, but the supplied care instructions still require inspection and dry storage. Replace bent or corroded hooks and secure sharp points in a box or hook holder when not in use.

The VMC H ASSIST 7117SA X2 belongs to the 7117SA LIGHT SINGLE ASSIST series. These single assist hooks are designed for slow jigging at sea, including use with heavy jigs, pirks and other large artificial lures. The TLC (Technical Locking Curve) design improves hook setting and helps hold a hooked fish securely. Needle Sharp™ points support hook penetration.
The twisted braided assist cord has 40% more resistance according to VMC, although the comparison basis is not specified. Its fluorocarbon core helps prevent tangles while working the lure. The assist braid is rated at 130 lb (approximately 59 kg), and the core material at 8 lb (approximately 3.6 kg). These are cord-component ratings, not a stated breaking strain for the complete hook assembly.
UV Kristal Flash increases underwater visibility and is intended to improve the strike rate during jigging. The TI (Tin) coating provides corrosion protection for saltwater use.
The variants differ in hook size and listed weight: size 1 weighs 0.82 g, 1/0 weighs 0.97 g, 2/0 weighs 1.3 g and 3/0 weighs 1.9 g. Size 1 is the smallest and lightest option, while 3/0 is the largest and heaviest. Choose the hook size to suit the lure and fishing method, taking the added hook weight into account. The supplied evidence does not specify matching lure weights or species limits, so hook size alone should not be treated as a fish-weight rating. The design, coating and cord specifications are shared across these variants.
Check the hooks and line connection before use. Replace bent, damaged or corroded hooks, and use pliers or a hook remover to reduce contact with sharp points. Keep the hooks secured in a box or hook holder, store them dry and keep them out of children's reach.
