Stroft Niti Polywire Nickel-Titan 2m
Wires made of nickel-titanium alloys (NiTi) are enjoying increasing
popularity in the PREDATOR FISHING SCENE - mainly because of their unique
property of springing back to their original state even after severe
bending.
However, there arealso disadvantages - namely when ,,connecting" these
nickel-titanium wires to swivels, snaps, hooks and others.
Crimps are often used as aids for this purpose. But unfortunately these
connections have strongly fluctuating breaking strains, also because of the
sharp edges of the crimps.
If you crimp them too hard, there is a risk of stress concentration at either
end of the crimp (NiTi wires are generally more susceptible to stress
concentration than steel wires) and thus a reduction of the wire's breaking
strain.
If the crimping is too weak, there is a risk of slippage, which also leads to a
reduction in breaking strain. Sometimes ,,tying a knot" is recommended.
However, there too depending on the wire, only highly fluctuating knot
strengths are achieved. In addition, thicker monowires are stiff and tying
knots becomes very difficult.
STROFT NiTi Monowire and STROFT NiTi Polywire solve these problems and are the
first choice when it comes to the ultimate predator leader. The connections are
quick and easy to make.
No crimps, no pliers - a simple, very easy to tie clinch knot with 4 turns (see
illustration) is the solution - and with STROFT NiTi (and its thinner wires) it
can even achieve up to 100% of the linear breaking strain! (See table).
This was made possible by a very specific adjustments of the alloy composition
to those properties that are desired for predator fishing leaders -
namely:
maximum abrasion resistance, superelasticity, optimum (simple) knotability,
best possible line memory, maximum breaking strain/maximum knot strength,
sufficient stretch (8%) and a non-reflective surface.
STROFT NiTi Monowire and STROFT NiTi Polywire optimally meet all these
requirements.
For example, a 0.20 STROFT NiTi Monowire has a breaking strain of 4.2 kg, which
is also almost achieved in the clinch knot (see table).
Note:
Monowire is generally stiffer than Polywire, which consists ofseveral
individual wires.
Therefore, if you want to use the clinch knot, you should choose Polywire when
choosing to go higher in diameter then approx. 0.30 mm, because Monowire
becomes quite stiff above that strength.
On the other hand, even with a 0.60 polywire the clinchknot can still be tied
well! However, if 0.40 Monowire is to be used, crimps are advisable. And in
order to prevent or at least reduce the stress effect mentioned above, it makes
sense to ,,defuse" the crimp's relatively sharp inner edge (e.g. with a 90°
reamer) beforehand.
Then a shrink tube should be pulled over the connection. (This also always
applies, of course, if you prefer to use crimps instead of clinch knots for
other diameters.)
