Westin W3 Oceanic Swirl 8-Braid 300m 0.165mm 7.9kg Marine Mix

Westin W3 Oceanic Swirl 8-Braid 300m — Precision-Metered Saltwater Braid for Light-to-Medium Saltwater Tactics

Built from premium Japanese UHMPE (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) fibres and sealed with Westin's Double Dura-Coating, the W3 Oceanic Swirl in 0.165mm / 7.9kg (PE1.0) is the go-to braid for light saltwater spinning, finesse jigging, and inshore work where long, accurate casts make the difference.

Metered Colour Pattern for Real-Time Depth and Distance Control

Five alternating colours — Bright White, Smokey Grey, Orchid Purple, Lime Punch, and Dutch Orange — change every 10 metres, letting you track exactly how much line is out at a glance. Whether you're counting down a vertical jig or working a lure along a sandbar edge, the metered system removes the guesswork entirely.

Double Dura-Coating for Cast Distance and Wind-Knot Resistance

The hydrophobic gel-coating process repels water, reduces surface friction, and adds controlled stiffness to the braid. At 0.165mm with 32 weaves per inch and a round profile, the line shoots cleanly off the spool even into a stiff onshore wind — a genuine advantage when targeting sea bass, garfish, or light pelagics from the shore or a small boat. Each colour segment is soaked in dye tanks, oven-cured, and double gel-sealed for lasting colour stability and durability.
