Fulling Mill Brass Beads

They are used in fly tying to add weight and visual appeal to artificial flies, helping them to sink and attract fish.

While effective, they are particularly favored by expert tiers. Beginners may find them easier to use once basic fly tying techniques are mastered.

Fulling Mill Brass Beads are available in various sizes, including S2mm, S2.4mm, and S3.8mm, to accommodate different fly patterns.

The colors (e.g., Gold, Black) primarily offer aesthetic variety. Gold can provide a flash, while black offers a more subdued look, depending on the desired effect.

These beads are specifically designed for fly tying. Their size, weight, and intended application make them most effective in that context.

They are typically threaded onto the hook shank or tying wire before other materials are added, serving as a weighted head or body component.

Yes, they are available in finishes such as Gold and Black, allowing fly tiers to match specific fishing conditions or desired fly aesthetics.

Ensure the bead size is appropriate for the hook shank diameter. Try a smaller bead size or a hook with a thicker shank if necessary.

Secure the bead more firmly with thread or a drop of superglue. Ensure the thread wraps are tight around the bead.

Store beads in a dry container. Gently polish with a soft cloth. For severe tarnish, a mild brass cleaner can be used, but be cautious not to damage the fly if applied directly.
