Tungsten Putty – The Smarter, Safer Way to Add Weight on the Fly
Ditch the split shot. Tungsten Putty is a moldable, non-toxic, lead-free weighting solution designed for fly fishers who want precise depth control without the hassle of crimping or the environmental guilt of lead.
Simply pinch off the amount you need, roll it thin, wrap it around your tippet or line, and press it back together — it self-bonds instantly. When you're done, peel it off and reuse it. No tools, no waste, no damage to your line. TIP: If it's very cold warm it in your pocket or hands. It goes solid when it hits the water.
Why Anglers Choose Tungsten Putty
- Environmentally friendly – lead-free and non-toxic, safe for waterways and wildlife
- Fully moldable – use exactly as much or as little as you need for precise depth control
- Self-bonding – wraps and molds back into itself with no clips or tools required
- Easy on, easy off – won't damage your tippet or leader
- Reusable – peel off and put back in the pack, ready for next time
- Ideal split shot alternative – works with nymphs, wet flies, and indicator rigs
Each pack contains 14g — enough for a full season of nymphing sessions.
Whether you're dead-drifting a hare & copper on a South Island river or euro-nymphing a backcountry stream, Tungsten Putty gives you the control to get your fly into the zone — fast.
