Sehr gute Qualität , wir benutzen diese Wirbel in Norwegen !

I was in search of good coastal snap swivels for salmon and ling fishing so I bought these #3 / 170# AFW snap swivels. My current mixed bag of coastal snap swivels either were too loose and opened at the worst possible times, or the swivel part was faulty and wouldn't rotate with a load. Try this test with your current snap swivels or bead chains: Tie one to the mainline on your rod and hang it in the air with a 2# or so weight. Now hold just the fishing line and spin the weight quickly and see if your swivel actually spins with a load. My other snap swivels and bead chains totally failed or barely rotated. I tried the test on an AFW snap swivel and it spun like a charm. I even chained multiple snap swivels and the only one that rotated was the AFW snap swivel. Now on to the negatives of this product, the size. This thing is tiny. The total length is about 1 and 7/8". The actual part you push in is about 3/4". Because I bought the #3 / 170# snap swivels, it requires quite a bit of force to open up, and that is a good and bad thing. You'll be guaranteed there'll be no accidental openings BUT it'll be hard to open on the boat with or without gloves, but especially in the wet or cold. 10% fishing and 90% gear shopping. Tight liines!
