    Tungsten

    Can I get some recommendations on tungsten that doesn’t fray your line?

    Just about any of them in my experience. At least the insert free ones I’ve not had a problem. Strike King Tour Grade tungsten I know won’t. I’m sure there are many others.

    They all come from one of two factories, so there's really no difference.

    Try this if you're having issues otherwise:

    Do you think the 1/8 size tube will fit 1/8 and 3/16 weights ?

    I've used it in 1/4, and I think they've got the same size opening. Honestly think they all do within the category of worm weights or within flipping weights (I have noticed that flipping weights have a larger diameter hole as they'll slide over a thin cylinder bobber stop).

    The weights I sell are smooth bore insert free weights I have not gotten complaints or experienced the line fray. Can someone explain to me this line fray situation.
