Tungsten Counter Bored & Insta Jig Beads
Tungsten beads with the back of the hole Counter Bored out to a wider angle so the bead goes around the bend and sets well in the 60 degree angle of a jig hook. Will fit all barbless hooks of close to the right size and most barbed hooks that don't have too tight a corner in the bend. They fit standard hooks better than Slotted Bead hooks which are designed for jig hooks. Generally at least 2 sizes of beads will fit each size of hook and vise versa. Call or email if you want verification of what beads fit with which hooks.
3.8mm Tu Offset Beads, Photo #2 have the Counter Bored hole offset above center to either project the weight forward on a 60 degree jig hook much as slotted beads do, or make the weight lower so a down eye hook fishes hook point up like a jig. They are slightly bigger than the 3.5mm slotted beads I have. The heavier wire Size #7 KSun 7311 hook needed the barb broken or bent down to get through the bead. I also bent up the eye slightly.
All sizes are $4.00 per bag. Quantity varies from 34pack to 17pack for newly received Silver and Black Nickle in sizes 2.8mm, 3.8mm and 4.6mm. Older inventory is still in less beads per bag.
