Westin W3 8-Braid Braided Line 1500m 0.148mm 6.1kg Dutch Orange

Westin W3 8-Braid — High-Visibility Braided Line for Precise Spinning

The Westin W3 8-Braid in Dutch Orange is a versatile UHMPE (Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene) 8-carrier braided line built for anglers who demand accuracy and control on every cast. At 0.148 mm and 6.1 kg breaking strain on a 1500 m spool, it's ready to fill large reels and handle a full season of hard spinning.

Round Profile for Distance and Accuracy

The W3 8-Braid is constructed with 32 picks per inch (PPI), producing a tight, round cross-section that slides through rod guides with minimal friction. The result is longer, more accurate casts and a direct, low-stretch feel that keeps you in touch with lures and bottom structure at any range.

Dutch Orange Color for Constant Line Control

The vivid Dutch Orange finish makes it easy to track line movement, detect slack, and read subtle takes — especially useful when fishing fast-running lures or jigging in coloured water. The high colour retention means the line stays visible cast after cast, without fading quickly into an unreadable pale.
