Spiderwire Stealth Smooth8 Braided Line 2000m 5.4kg 0.05mm Translucent

Spiderwire Stealth Smooth8 — Ultra-Fine 0.05 mm Braid for Finesse Freshwater Fishing

The Spiderwire Stealth Smooth8 X8 PE (polyethylene) Braid in Translucent delivers exceptional sensitivity and long casting in a barely-there 0.05 mm diameter — ideal for finesse techniques where a low-vis, featherlight line makes the difference.

Smooth, Round 8-Carrier Construction

Eight tightly interwoven PE fibres create a dense, round braid that glides smoothly through guides and off the spool. The uniform cross-section minimises friction, helping you cast further with lighter lures, while the soft hand feel makes tying precise knots straightforward even in cold conditions.

Microcrystalline Polymer Coating for Lasting Performance

A thin layer of high-resistance microcrystalline polymer is applied over the braid, adding surface protection without increasing diameter. The coating helps the line resist abrasion from gravel, weed and guide rings, and contributes to the consistently smooth finish that the Stealth Smooth8 range is known for.

Choose the Right Variant

The Stealth Smooth8 X8 is available across a wide range of diameters, breaking strains and colours — letting you match the line precisely to your target species, method and conditions.
