Product Information
Full details
The Korda Chod Swivels are precision-engineered terminal tackle components designed for carp anglers who specialize in chod rigs or hinged stiff rigs. These size-eleven swivels feature an updated barrel design that allows tungsten putty to be securely moulded around them, ensuring your presentation stays pinned to the lake bed. While they offer exceptional rotation and rapid hook link changes, they are specifically optimized for specific rig setups and may not be the primary choice for standard lead-clip fishing where a traditional swivel suffices.

FAQs
Can I use these with standard lead clips?
Yes, they are compatible with most standard lead clip and helicopter systems.
What size are these swivels?
They come in size 11, which is the industry standard for compact carp rig components.
Do I need to use putty with these?
While not mandatory, they are specifically engineered to hold putty, which helps balance pop-up baits more effectively.

Yes, these are specifically designed to be used as the pivot point in hinged stiff rig setups.
How many come in a pack?

Troubleshooting
Putty keeps falling off the swivel.
Ensure the swivel barrel is completely dry before applying the putty and squeeze the putty firmly into the textured surface.
Swivel rotation feels stiff after extended use.
Check for trapped silt or weed inside the swivel eye. Clean with a small brush or rinse thoroughly under running water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These swivels are fully compatible with standard helicopter rig components, including buffer beads and lead leaders. To set up, thread the swivel onto your leader line before attaching your top bead. To maximize longevity, rinse the swivels in freshwater after each session to remove lake debris or salt residue. When applying putty, ensure the surface of the swivel is dry to allow the tungsten compound to bond effectively to the textured barrel. Store in a dry tackle box to prevent oxidation and maintain smooth rotation.
