FTM New Generation Rubber Beads 5mm 16pcs Black

FTM New Generation Rubber Beads 5mm — Knot Protection for Trout Rigs

These 5mm black rubber beads from FTM are a simple but essential accessory for trout anglers fishing with bombards (float-casting rigs) and sbirolinos. Pack of 16 pieces.

Protect Your Swivel Knots Under Casting Stress

When fishing with a bombard or sbirolino, the weight repeatedly strikes the swivel knot on the cast — weakening the line over time and risking a break-off mid-fight. Slipping one of these rubber beads onto the line between the float and the swivel creates a cushioning buffer that absorbs those impacts, keeping your knot intact and your leader secure.

Quick and Easy to Rig

A wire loop tool makes threading these beads effortless: thread your mainline through the wire eye after mounting the bombard or sbirolino, transfer the bead onto the line, then tie your trout swivel. The bead sits snugly in place and stays put throughout the session — no additional fixing required.

Choose the Right Variant

This product is currently available in one configuration. Always match bead diameter to your rig components for a snug, rattle-free fit.
