FTM Sechskantblei Sinker 40g

FTM Hexagonal Sinker — Reliable Bottom Weight for Still and Running Water

The FTM Sechskantblei (hexagonal sinker), also known as a coffin lead, is a time-tested bottom weight trusted by generations of anglers for legering in rivers and lakes alike.

Stays Put Where You Place It

The six-sided hexagonal profile resists rolling on uneven or sloping lake beds and gravel riverbeds, keeping your bait exactly where you want it. Whether you're fishing a slow pool or a moderate current, the flat facets grip the bottom and reduce unwanted rig movement.

Versatile All-Round Bottom Rig Weight

At 40 g, this sinker handles a broad range of legering and feeder-style setups — enough weight to hold bottom in moderate flow while remaining manageable for medium-range casts. The silver-coloured lead finish is neutral in the water, making it suitable for a wide variety of species and conditions. Each pack contains 2 sinkers so you have a spare ready to go.
