robbor Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 Someone mentioned getting wire for spinnerbaits from mcmaster, i went online and they seem to offer many types. What type of SS is normally used in wire frames and would another type of SS be better? I know there are a few types of SS than can be hardened like 416 but i dont think dead hard would work to well and would not want to mess with tempering it.Thank Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spnrbatr Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 I think the reason for using the mcmaster wire is because it is straight rather than the loops you get from the tackle warehouses. Never tried the straight stuff, always used the looped stuff. I have'nt thought about different types of stainless don't know if it makes a difference or not. gonna have to try that out. I feel like the diameter of the wire is the most important thing rather than the composition of the wire. If you use .029 wire with a closed loop I promise you will catch fish on it. You just need to make a bunch of them due to breakage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
