Product Information
Full details
The Avid Outline Tungsten Rig Tube is an essential end-tackle component for carp anglers looking to improve their presentation's camouflage and fish safety. It is ideal for those who prioritize a low-profile setup that hugs the lake bed, ensuring rigs remain tangle-free and concealed from wary carp. While it excels at concealment and protection, users should note that the heavy tungsten construction requires a bit more care when threading to ensure it seats perfectly within anti-tangle sleeves.

FAQs
How long is the tube in each pack?
Each pack contains 2 meters of tungsten rig tubing.
Is this tube compatible with all lead clips?
Yes, it is designed to fit standard lead clips and inline lead systems effectively.
Can I shorten the tube?
Yes, you can easily trim the tubing to your preferred length using a sharp pair of line scissors.
Does the wire tool come with the pack?
Yes, a dedicated wire threading tool is included in every pack.
Will the camouflage pattern fade?
The camouflage pattern is durable, though exposure to harsh chemicals or extreme UV might affect the finish over a long period.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty threading the main line through the tube
Ensure you are using the included wire tool and cut the end of your main line at a sharp angle to reduce friction.
Tubing sits off the lake bed
Check if there is too much tension on the main line or if the tubing is trapped on a piece of debris; slacken the line slightly to let the tungsten weight settle.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Superior sinking speed thanks to high-density tungsten
- Excellent camouflage pattern for diverse lake beds
- Reduces the risk of tangles during long-range casting
- Includes a dedicated wire threading tool
- Protects fish scales during the landing process
Cons
- Heavier than standard plastic tubing which may affect total rig weight

- Shorter length (2m) compared to bulkier non-tungsten alternatives
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, first pass your main line through the provided wire threading tool loop. Then, push the tool through the length of the tungsten tube. Once the line is through, you can slide your lead clip or anti-tangle sleeve onto the tubing. To maintain the life of the product, rinse the tubing with fresh water after each session if used in brackish or heavily silted waters to prevent debris buildup inside the bore. Keep the tubing stored away from direct sunlight when not in use to preserve the flexibility of the material.
