Westin W10 13 Braid 0.285mm 135m 24.6kg Orchid Purple

Westin W10 13 Braid — Supremely Round, Cast-Further Braided Line

Built for anglers who demand the very best from their mainline, the Westin W10 13 Braid delivers an exceptional combination of strength, abrasion resistance and casting smoothness in a vivid Orchid Purple color that stays bright session after session.

13-Carrier CORE Construction for Superior Roundness and Strength

Unlike standard 8-carrier braids, the W10 uses a 13X (12+1) Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene (UHMPE) design: 12 premium Japanese UHMPE fibers woven tightly around a dedicated central CORE carrier. This produces a uniformly round cross-section that tracks cleanly through guides, seats consistently in knots, and delivers improved breaking strength compared to conventional 8-strand lines.

Advanced Ultra High PIC Weave and Dura-Coating for Casting Performance

With 56 weaves per inch, the Advanced Ultra High PIC construction gives the W10 a super-smooth, low-friction surface that cuts through rod rings with minimal resistance for longer, more accurate casts. The Dura-Coating gel process adds a hydrophobic outer layer that actively repels water, further reducing friction and maintaining consistent performance throughout the session. Color pigment is baked in before a final Dura-Coat seal locks it in for lasting vibrancy.
