Balzer Iron Line 8 Braided Line 0.12mm 9.8kg 150m Green

Balzer Iron Line 8 — Direct Bite Feel for Predator Spinning

The Balzer Iron Line 8 is an 8-carrier round-braided line built for active spinning and lure fishing in freshwater — offering the sensitivity and strength serious predator anglers rely on.

Exceptional Sensitivity Through Low Stretch

With minimal elongation, every tap, tick, and take transmits directly to your rod tip. Whether you're working a soft plastic on a drop-shot rig or twitching a hard bait across structure, you stay in constant contact with the lure and react instantly to bites from pike, perch, zander, and trout.

Abrasion Resistance with a Soft, Smooth Surface

The tight 8-carrier round braid creates a very smooth surface that runs quietly through rod guides and casts with ease, while holding up well against gravel, sunken wood, and other snag-prone features. The high breaking strain of 9.8 kg in a slim 0.12 mm diameter keeps your presentation refined without sacrificing backbone.

Choose the Right Variant

The Iron Line 8 comes in a wide range of diameters, breaking strains, and two colours — green for natural concealment in freshwater, yellow for high visibility and bite detection. Match the size to your target species and technique:

• 0.08 mm / 7.2 kg — Green or Yellow: Ultra-light setups; drop-shot and finesse jigging for perch and trout

• 0.10 mm / 8.1 kg — Green or Yellow: Light predator spinning; small soft plastics for perch and zander

• 0.12 mm / 9.8 kg — Green (current variant): All-round freshwater spinning; jigs and hard baits for pike, zander, and perch

• 0.12 mm / 9.8 kg — Yellow: Same rating, high-visibility option for bite indication

• 0.14 mm / 10.7 kg — Green or Yellow: Slightly heavier jig fishing; stronger currents and snaggy swims

• 0.16 mm / 11.6 kg — Green or Yellow (salt/freshwater): Versatile medium line for larger pike and sea-run species

• 0.18 mm / 12.7 kg — Green or Yellow (salt/freshwater): Heavier hard-bait casting; coastal spinning and pike

• 0.21 mm / 15.4 kg — Green or Yellow: Big-water pike and catfish jigging

• 0.24 mm / 19.5 kg — Green or Yellow: Heavy jigging; large predators in deep or flowing water

• 0.27 mm / 27.5 kg — Green or Yellow: Powerful setups for trophy pike and large catfish

• 0.30 mm / 34.8 kg — Green or Yellow (salt/freshwater): Maximum-strength applications; big-game freshwater or light saltwater
