Nylon Backbone 140kg 1.8mm @ 2m stops (1000 hank) Longline

Meet the Nylon Mono Longline Backbone — a purpose-built mainline designed for serious longline setups where reliability, consistency, and endurance matter. Crafted from high-quality nylon mono-filament, this 1.8mm backbone balances strength and flexibility, delivering a robust 140kg breaking strain that stands up to demanding offshore conditions. Supplied as a continuous 1000-metre hank and pre-stoppered at 2.0-metre intervals, it ensures uniform hook spacing right from the spool and streamlines the rigging process.

Key features

• 1.8mm nylon mono-filament backbone — a proven balance of tensile strength and manageable handling.
• 140kg breaking strain — built to handle medium-to-large species with confidence.
• Stoppered at 2.0m spacing — consistent hook intervals for efficient longline rigs.
• 1000 metre hank — ample length for commercial or serious recreational operations.
• Pre-stoppered design — faster rigging, fewer tangles, and secure hook positioning.
• abrasion-resistant and durable — engineered to withstand the rigors of harsh marine environments.
• Designed for longline applications — reliable performance in everyday use and extended campaigns.

Why this backbone stands out

• Commercial-grade construction means consistency you can count on from the first rig to the last. The 2.0m stopper intervals remove guesswork, ensuring predictable spacing and simpler line hauling.
• The 1.8mm diameter provides a practical balance between knot strength, line sensitivity, and handling, so you can detect bites without sacrificing durability.
• With a 140kg breaking strain, this backbone is well-suited for targeting medium to large species, expanding your longline capabilities without switching materials mid-season.

Ideal use cases

• Commercial longline operations aiming for consistent catch profiles and efficient rigging turnaround.
• Serious recreational boats building custom longlines that need dependable performance and extended service life.
• Offshore deployments where abrasion resistance and durability are essential to endure rocky or rugged seabed environments.

Practical tips for optimal results

• Pair this backbone with compatible hooks and leaders to maximize catch efficiency while maintaining the integrity of the 2.0m spacing.
• Store the hank in a cool, dry place and keep it away from direct sunlight to preserve flexibility and prevent UV degradation over time.
• When rigging, use the pre-stoppered spacing as a baseline for setting up multiple lines to achieve uniform coverage across your fishing grounds.

Choose this Nylon Backbone for dependable, long-lasting performance where reliability matters most. It’s built to withstand demanding marine conditions, delivering consistent results you can trust season after season.
