Westin W10 13 Braid 0.33mm 135m 31.2kg Orchid Purple

Westin W10 13 Braid — Supreme Strength in Orchid Purple

Built for anglers who refuse to compromise, the Westin W10 13 Braid (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) in Orchid Purple delivers competition-grade performance across salt and freshwater alike. At 0.33mm diameter with a 31.2kg breaking strain, this is a heavy-duty line ready for demanding targets.

CORE 13X Construction for Unmatched Roundness and Strength

Unlike standard 8-carrier braids, the W10 uses a 13X (12+1) CORE architecture — 12 premium Japanese UHMPE carriers woven tightly around a central core carrier. The result is a uniformly round, high-density profile that maximises knot strength and outperforms thinner-carrier alternatives under load. The Advanced Ultra High PIC construction runs at 56 weaves per inch, delivering a super-smooth surface with exceptional abrasion resistance — essential when fishing heavy cover, rocky bottoms, or strong currents.

Dura-Coating for Longer Casts and Lasting Colour

A gel-based Dura-Coating process gives the W10 a hydrophobic outer surface that actively repels water, reduces ring friction, and keeps the braid shooting smoothly through guides cast after cast. Before sealing, the line is soaked in dye tanks and oven-cured to lock pigment deep into the fibres — so the Orchid Purple stays vivid throughout the spool's life, making bite detection and line tracking easier on the water.

Choose the Right Variant

The W10 13 Braid Orchid Purple is available across a wide diameter range to suit different techniques, target species, and rod setups. Select by breaking strain and PE rating:

• 0.08mm / 6.0kg (PE 0.2) — ultra-light finesse tactics, small lure casting, stream trout

• 0.10mm / 6.1kg (PE 0.4) — light drop-shot, micro jigging, perch and roach

• 0.128mm / 7.4kg (PE 0.6) — light spinning, small pike, finesse jigging

• 0.148mm / 9.0kg (PE 0.8) — light-to-medium lure fishing, zander, bass

• 0.165mm / 10.9kg (PE 1.0) — versatile all-round lure and bait fishing

• 0.205mm / 13.4kg (PE 1.5) — medium spinning, pike, coastal sea fishing

• 0.235mm / 18.9kg (PE 2.0) — medium-heavy spinning, larger pike, sea bass
