Textreme Rod Building (Size A) Rod Wrapping Thread

Textreme Rod Building (Size A) is intended primarily for fly-rod building. It is made from three high-tenacity polyamide strands twisted together. This construction provides good strength, brilliance and a regular, perfectly round profile. The product can also be used as a tying thread for large saltwater patterns. Its round profile supports even thread travel and a neat finish when securing rod components or building substantial flies. During use, keep the tension controlled rather than overtightening each wrap; the required pressure depends on the component and the tying stage.

Construction and use

This is a specialist construction thread rather than a general-purpose fine fly-tying thread. Its main role is securing and finishing components during fly-rod building, while its additional role is tying large, material-heavy saltwater flies where a robust, round thread is useful.

• Construction: three twisted high-tenacity polyamide strands.
• Profile: regular and round, with visible brilliance.
• Applications: fly-rod building and large saltwater patterns.
• Handling: maintain steady, moderate tension and watch the wraps as they seat.
