Premium Tungsten Beads
At Feather Craft, we’re always looking for ways to help you tie flies that fish better, sink faster, and hold up longer—and our Premium Tungsten Beads check every box. Each pack includes 25 high-quality, environmentally friendly, non-toxic tungsten beads, giving you a sustainable alternative to lead without sacrificing performance. We use them on our own tying benches because they deliver consistent results on the water, season after season.
Tungsten is 50% heavier than brass, which means your nymphs, jigs, and Euro-style patterns drop into the strike zone faster and maintain a more natural drift in heavy current or deep runs. That extra density is essential for modern nymphing, where getting down quickly—and staying down—makes all the difference. Whether you’re tying Perdigons, Pheasant Tails, Hare’s Ears, or jig-style patterns, these beads give your flies the ideal weight-to-size ratio for maximum effectiveness.
Each bead is precision-machined for perfect roundness and a smooth finish. That makes them easy to slide onto the hook without cracking thread, fraying materials, or fighting with irregular openings. We offer them in a wide range of sizes and finishes—from classic gold, silver, and copper to bold painted colors—so you can fine-tune weight, match hatch conditions, or add just the right amount of flash to trigger strikes.
Their high-density, compact design helps maintain clean, natural fly proportions while adding the weight your patterns need. The corrosion-resistant surface performs beautifully in both fresh and salt water, giving you long-lasting durability that holds up to hard fishing and tough conditions.
Environmentally responsible and exceptionally functional, our tungsten beads help your flies sink faster, look better, and fish more effectively. If you demand premium performance and eco-conscious materials at the tying bench, our Premium Tungsten Beads deliver the consistency and quality you can trust every time you hit the water.
