FAQs

What is the best way to secure the hook link to the QC Swivel?

Slide the rig loop onto the crook and cover the connection with a Korda Anti-Tangle Sleeve or a small piece of silicone tubing.

Are these compatible with standard lead clips?

Yes, the Size 8 profile is specifically designed to fit perfectly into the majority of standard lead clips and inline lead inserts.

Does the PTFE coating wear off?

Like any finish, it can wear over time due to friction against lead clips, but it is highly durable and designed to remain non-reflective throughout a session.

Can I use these with non-looped rigs?

No, the QC design requires a looped connection on your hook link to function as intended.

How many swivels come in a pack?

Each pack contains 8 individual size 8 swivels.

Troubleshooting

Rig loop keeps slipping off the swivel.

Ensure you are using a piece of silicone tubing or shrink tube over the swivel crook to lock the loop in place.

Swivel appears stiff or rotates poorly.

Check for debris or grit buildup inside the eye. Rinse with fresh water and allow to air dry.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly reduces time spent changing rigs
Non-reflective coating reduces underwater visibility
Compatible with most standard carp fishing lead systems
Ideal for quick deployment of chod rigs

Cons

Requires using looped rigs exclusively
Requires a sleeve or shrink tube to keep the loop secure
Size 8 may be too large for delicate light-tackle presentations

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To integrate these into your terminal tackle, thread your main line through the swivel eye before attaching your lead system. When attaching your hook link, ensure the loop is fully seated in the crook. To protect the integrity of the coating and the metal itself, rinse the swivels in fresh water after use in silty or abrasive conditions. Store in a dry, cool place within your tackle box to prevent oxidation and maintain the integrity of the PTFE finish.
