    Default Needing split ring help


    I need some help finding some quality split rings and sizes for an 1/16 oz spinner to attach a hook.
    I have bought cheap ones that bend, heavy duty ones that I cannot open, small saltwater ones that were huge LOL, I just need a little help

    Thanks

    Check WLure. They ship from (you guessed it) China but they are good quality and inexpensive. Also a good pair of split ring pliers makes all the difference.

    I have used split rings for years. I can get 3 packs from the same vendor and one is soft, one is perfect and one that is impossible to work with. I think it as a lot to do with material inconsistency. Skip will fix you up.

    It’s not what size that’s causing the issues of bending more then the way your opening them,,,if you don’t use the pliers they will bend most any size rings,,,,a dang tool for everything in this life,,,,lol

    Have to use splitting pliers and have the right size for the rings you're using. I have bought a good many and always go back to the ones I have had a long time now. The whole thing can be a bit maddening!
