Westin Stainless Steel 49-Strand Wire 0.54mm 24kg 5m Brown

Westin Stainless Steel 49-Strand Wire — Silk-Soft Steel for Sharp-Toothed Predators

Built for anglers who make their own traces and rigs, this 5 m spool of uncoated stainless high carbon steel wire combines supple handling with serious bite resistance.

Flexibility Without Compromise

Woven from 49 individual strands in a 7×7 braid, this wire bends and flows more like a monofilament than a stiff steel leader. That suppleness means natural bait and lure presentation — and a wire you can actually knot by hand without specialist tools.

Uncoated for Maximum Sensitivity

Stripping away the coating keeps the wire lightweight and highly responsive. You feel every nudge transmitted directly through the wire, helping you detect tentative bites from cautious predators. The matte brown finish sits low-key in the water and resists picking up debris.

Choose the Right Variant

The wire is available in five diameters to match your target species and rig style. Select the breaking strain that suits your setup and the predators you're after.

• 0.27 mm / 6 kg — Light pike and perch traces, small lure rigs, finesse setups

• 0.36 mm / 14 kg — General pike fishing, medium lure rigs, stinger traces

• 0.45 mm / 17 kg — Larger pike and zander, heavy lure rigs, snap-link traces

• 0.63 mm / 34 kg — Trophy pike and large catfish, heavy-duty bottom rigs, maximum abrasion resistance
