Westin W6 8 Braid 0.148mm 6.8kg 1500m Lime Punch

Westin W6 8 Braid — 1500m Bulk Spool for Serious Lure Anglers

The Westin W6 8 Braid in 0.148mm / 6.8kg on a 1500m (1640yds) spool gives dedicated lure anglers the freedom to fill multiple reels or stock up for a full season — without compromising on line quality.

Advanced High PIC Construction for Strength and Smoothness

Built from premium Japanese UHMPE (Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene) fibres, the W6 uses a proprietary 8-carrier, 36-weaves-per-inch construction called Advanced High PIC. This tight weave delivers exceptional knot strength and abrasion resistance relative to its slim 0.148mm diameter, while the round profile flows cleanly off the spool for accurate presentation with lighter lures.

Dura-Coating for Long-Casting Performance and Colour Retention

A gel-applied Dura-Coating gives the braid a smooth, hydrophobic surface that sheds water, reduces friction through rod rings, and helps achieve longer, more accurate casts. Colour stability is locked in by soaking the line in dye tanks before oven curing — the pigment is baked into the fibres and sealed under a final dura-coat layer, so the Lime Punch colour stays vivid through repeated sessions in both salt and fresh water.

Choose the Right Variant

The W6 8 Braid Lime Punch is available in two spool formats and a wide range of diameters to match any reel size, target species, or technique. The 135m (150yds) spools suit single-reel fills, while the 1500m (1640yds) bulk spools offer the best economy for guides, competitive anglers, or anyone who changes line frequently.
