American Fishing Wire Stainless Steel Ball Bearing Snap Swivels are engineered to survive the fiercest one-on-one battles. The patented bullet shape provides fluid rotation and decreased water resistance. The unique gun metal black finish minimizes reflections and cloaks the tackle.
Swivels have a solid stainless steel body, stainless steel bearings, and double welded rings for maximum security and to endure the unforgiving offshore environment. The tournament snaps are tempered and made of solid stainless steel, designed to stay closed and keep you connected to the fish. Don't even think about making a trip to the canyon, or out of sight of the shoreline, without these battle-tested ball bearing swivels in your tackle box.

Order a size lager

They are on the small size compared to their spec strength. If you are used to conventional sizes, get a size lager.

Can't believe how small they are compared to the listed strength. I hope they are as strong as they claim to be...

AFW 320lb SS Ball Bearing Snap Swivel
February 5, 2016
Great product!
Pros
- The tension of the snap is amongst the strongest in its class. Thousands of casts and I've never had a snap come loose/never lost a weight.
Cons
- Saltwater use: The salt and/or sand eventually begins to deteriorate the bearing but it doesn't seem to affect the overall performance.
