Swimerz Lead Rigging Wire – 2mm, 2m
Getting the right sink rate on a fly or soft plastic rig often comes down to adding weight right at the hook — and this Swimerz 2mm lead rigging wire is one of the simplest ways to do it, wrapping cleanly around the hook shank and cutting to whatever length you need.

If you're tying weighted flies, loading soft plastic rigs or trying to get a custom build to sit right in the water, sourcing the right weighting material is often the fiddly part. Lead rigging wire solves this cleanly — wrap it around the hook shank or component, cut it to length, and you're done.
Swimerz's 2mm lead wire is the heaviest of their rigging wire range at 35.6 grams per metre, meaning a small amount goes a long way. It's the right choice when you need more substantial weight concentrated close to the hook — think deep nymphs, heavier jig patterns or lightly loaded soft plastic rigs that need to get down fast without adding external sinkers.
The soft lead formula wraps easily by hand and holds its shape once formed, keeping weight positioned exactly where you put it. It also cuts cleanly with scissors or snips, making it easy to prepare consistent lengths across a session or tying bench.
Beyond fishing, the same properties that make it useful for hook weighting — dense, soft, easy to manipulate — also make it a practical option for model car ballast, buoy weights and similar hobby applications.
