Hends Flat Colour Wire Medium – flat copper wire for fly tying
Hends Flat Colour Wire Medium is a flat copper wire with a colored coating, designed for technical fly tying. Thanks to its strength and durability, it is perfect for functional fly patterns that must withstand repeated fish strikes.
The Medium size is optimal for tying flies on hook sizes 8–12. The wire is significantly stronger than synthetic tinsel or lametta, so it resists fish teeth reliably and helps protect the fly body from damage.
It is mainly used for:
- ribbing nymph and streamer bodies
- building complete fly bodies
- reinforcing the fly body
- securing feathers and other materials to the body of the fly
