01FISHING TACKLE
Stronger Rigs Through Precision Copper Crimps
The quiet precision of a well-made rig begins with the small components that hold it together. Swimerz copper crimps offer a refined alternative to traditional knots, ensuring your leader sits exactly where you intend it.
These 1.6mm double barrel sleeves are designed for heavy monofilament and wire lines, providing a secure connection that resists corrosion and simplifies the process of building durable tackle.
MATERIALS
Corrosion-Resistant Copper Construction
Crafted from highly corrosion-resistant copper, these crimps offer a material advantage over aluminium or steel. The metal is easier to compress, which reduces the risk of fractures during the crimping process. This durability ensures the component remains reliable even after repeated exposure to saltwater environments.
DESIGN
Double Barrel Sleeve for Secure Fit
The double barrel design eliminates the risk of leader overlap, a common source of damage in single-barrel systems. Each strand sits securely within its own channel, maintaining alignment and preventing friction between lines. This structural detail contributes to more accurate hook lengths and overall rig integrity.
IN USE
Faster Assembly Than Tying Knots
Using crimps instead of dropper knots results in quicker rig assembly and stronger connections. The smooth bore and burr-free edges prevent line damage as the sleeve is compressed. With proper technique, pressing in the centre rather than over-tightening ensures the line is secured without compromising its strength.
PRACTICALITY
Pack Contents and Application Tools
Available in packs of fifty, this quantity supports extensive rig-building sessions. The compact carton measures 12 x 7 x 1 cm and weighs 0.1 kg, making it easy to store in a tackle box. For optimal performance, match the crimp size to your line and apply them using special crimping pliers with gentle pressure.
