Grand Slam Bluewater Line
n EXTRA Grand Slam Bluewater is an extra strong, premium saltwater monofilament engineered to break the will of pelagic giants. Scientifically engineered from a combination of advanced multi-polymer and copolymer, Bluewater is brutally strong - with actual breaking strengths up to 200% of the published ratings. The unique multi-polymer/copolymer blend is not only stronger than conventional mono, it also provides superior abrasion resistance, higher knot strength, and it is softer and more supple. Grand Slam Bluewater stands alone among other saltwater lines, and exemplifies our slogan “When the Money’s on the Line”.

GRAND SLAM BRAID PRO ANGLER TIPS
u Ideal when you’re fishing extreme cover: thick vegetation, heavy brush, thick grass. Cuts through grass easily, acting like a mini saw blade. If a bite occurs in this cover, you won’t have to worry about a break off. u Excellent crankbait line around cover. The thin diameter creates less friction, and better casting distance, giving the bait a better depth and also better action. u Ideal line choice for top-water baits (walking, popping, frogs) due to floating action, low stretch, and smaller diameter which creates less friction.
Grand Slam Braid is thinner, rounder and packs more uniformly on spinning and conventional reels. The line will not bury in reels. Knots are stronger, don’t slip and abrasion resistance is greatly enhanced.
Grand Slam Braid
When you want the ultimate in sensitivity and bone-jarring hook sets, there’s only one line to have on your reels - HI-SEAS Grand Slam Braid - the line that gives you more of what you buy a super braid for! Made with the finest polyethylene fibers and manufactured using a process that weaves it into the tightest braid pattern possible, this remarkable line is guaranteed to perform like no other. Braiding this material under extreme pressure is a time-consuming process that costs more, but the benefits are evident from the first time you use it. Grand Slam Braid is thinner, rounder, and packs more uniformly on spinning and conventional reels. The line will not bury in reels, knots are stronger and don’t slip, and abrasion resistance is greatly enhanced. Its compact diameter reduces wind knots and rod tip wraps. In other words, it solves the problems anglers have been experiencing with other braids! You’ll cast further and feel your lures working like never before with unprecedented performance. Because the line has near zero stretch, even the most subtle bites will be transmitted back to your hands for immediate response. When it’s time to set the hook, a flick of the wrist will do the job! Grand Slam Braid is the absolute pinnacle of fishing performance. Its a line that can make anyone fish more like a pro! Made in USA.

“I have trusted HI-SEAS products with my livelihood for the past several years, and during that time, I have won over $1 million and a World Championship. That pretty much says it all.” -Cliff Pace, 2013 Bassmaster Classic Champion

Grand Slam Monofilament
GRAND SLAM MONO PRO ANGLER TIPS
u Grand Slam Mono is excellent for top water line. It floats, which equals a low sink rate. u Excellent “maintenance line” useful all around, when visibility, cover, feel isn’t an issue. u Great spinnerbait line around shallow cover. Also a good buzzbait line. u Good line for slow moving top-water baits in clear water (ex. walking lures, poppers).
-Jimmy Houston
-Mickey Melchiondo

Quattro Braid

O M A C OLOR

Quattro Braid is another remarkable fishing line that combines the disappearing camouflage properties of HI-SEAS Quattro® monofilament line and the finesse casting line strength of Grand Slam® Braid. Fusing both popular HI-SEAS lines to create Quattro Braid was naturally the best line concept to offer for both professional and recreational anglers. Quattro Braid camouflage fishing line provides excellent performance while retaining all the qualities that anglers have come to love, especially its ability to disappear underwater due to the extreme low-vis scientific proven 4-color combination of blue, black, green and red, patterned in short random lengths. Quattro Braid does for fishing line what camouflage clothes do for a hunter - it breaks up visual patterns so it blends into the background. Its unique formulation gives it incredible linear and impact strength with excellent abrasion resistance. Made with the finest polyethylene fibers and manufactured using a process that weaves it into the tightest braid pattern possible, this remarkable line is guaranteed to perform like no other. The line will not bury in reels, knots are stronger and don’t slip, and abrasion resistance is greatly enhanced. Its compact diameter reduces wind knots and rod tip wraps. Casts are further and will virtually disappear once in the water. Because the line has near zero stretch, even the most subtle bites will be transmitted back to your hands for immediate response. Quattro technology - proven for over 29 years - is exclusive to HI-SEAS!
Four scientifically selected colors are patterned in short lengths to breakup the visual impact of Quattro Braid underwater allowing it to blend into the background.

u Ideal when you’re fishing extreme cover: thick vegetation, heavy brush, thick grass. Cuts through grass easily, acting like a mini saw blade. If a bite occurs in this cover, you won’t have to worry about a break off. u Excellent crankbait line around cover. The thin diameter creates less friction, and better casting distance, giving the bait a better depth and also better action. u Ideal line choice for top-water baits (walking, popping, frogs) due to floating action, low stretch, and smaller diameter which creates less friction.

IS A LEADER NECESSARY? u For many types of fishing, anglers wouldn’t think of making a cast or dropping-back a
trolling lure or bait without a leader system. In almost all saltwater fishing situations, leaders are the norm - from casting shock leaders for surf casting to intricate leader/double-line affairs for tuna and marlin. Today, bass, walleye, and trout fishermen are arming their lines with fluorocarbon leaders simply because they get more bites. This tip is an excerpt from the HI-SEAS Fishing Line & Leader Guide: HI-SEAS offers a full range of leaders which encompass the very finest products you can buy. These come in tests and spool sizes perfect for everything from the lightest freshwater applications to the heaviest leaders for challenging the biggest fish in the ocean. These include HI-SEAS Fluorocarbon (page 26), Quattro Plus Leader (page 22), and Grand Slam Leader (page 16).

Quattro Plus Monofilament Leader
O M A C R 4- COLO
Quattro Plus is a unique blend of four scientifically selected colors extruded in short lengths which break up its visual pattern underwater so it blends into the background. Quattro Plus Leader is the ultimate leader for use inshore and offshore and costs a fraction of the price of fluorocarbon. Great for chunking tuna and striped bass, making rigs for bottom fishing and leaders for offshore trolling! Quattro Plus Leader is moderately soft, yet incredibly abrasion resistant. Supple enough to make rigging fast and easy, whether you’re tying knots or using sleeves, and tough enough to stand up to any finny creature.

100% Fluorocarbon Leader
100% WINNING LINE!
2013 & 2015 BASSMASTER CLASSICS HI-SEAS 100% Fluorocarbon is made from the highest grade of pure polyvinylidene fluoride and extruded to exacting quality control standards. It closely matches the light refractivity of water making it virtually invisible. Supple and easy to cast, HI-SEAS 100% Fluorocarbon is an excellent specialty running line. Pro bass anglers are using it for a variety of finesse techniques in super clear lakes because it sinks faster than mono, it’s undetectable by fish, and remarkably tough. It’s also ideal for use as invisible leaders - if you use braid or colored line, adding a leader of HI-SEAS 100% Fluorocarbon increases hits and provides extra security against chafe and abrasion.

PRO ANGLER TIPS
u Fluorocarbon is best used when visibility is an issue in any water conditions. u After Braid, it is the second most sensitive line available. u Ideal line for almost all techniques except top-water bait applications. u Its extreme sensitivity, low visibility, and low stretch is what makes it well rounded for any application.

Black Widow Monofilament
100% PREMIUEMR M CO POLY
. A . F . G . I LI FISHING
Black Widow monofilament has been a favorite with fresh and saltwater anglers since its introduction. It’s a thin-diameter, premium copolymer monofilament that incorporates multicolor camouflaging technology, so fish don’t see it. But that’s only one of the reasons you’ll love it. Black Widow is a supple line that lies beautifully on any reel and casts with near zero friction. It has low memory, so it won’t coil up after sitting on the reel for extended periods, and it’s a tough line that provides solid fish-fighting performance. For the record-conscious angler, it’s I.G.F.A. True-Test rated. Whether you jig for smallmouths, troll for walleyes, plug stripers, or chunk tuna, Black Widow is a proven performer that won’t let you down when the fishing heats up.

LUMINOUS COMPONENTS GLOW IN THE DARK!
LUMINOUS SHARK RATTLE
Scientists know that game fish are attracted to certain sound waves. That’s why these unique rattles are so popular with offshore anglers. They contain a single large ball bearing inside a tuned chamber of luminescent plastic that puts out a distinct click as it rolls from one side to the other. No shark or swordfish rig is complete without one, and even marlin and tuna anglers are using them. Charge them under a light source and they glow in the dark.

Outside Skirt: Blue/Red/Silver Inside Skirt: White/Mackerel
HI-SEAS Trolling Lure Heads are guaranteed to stay clear for 3 years, under normal use, or we will replace it.
HI-SEAS Soft Resin Head trolling lures provide a revolutionary breakthrough in blue water fishing. The holographic heads are made from a special resin formula engineered to be dense, crystal clear, and mildly soft with a neutral eye. Each lure is hand-made and assembled in Portugal. The softness creates a more realistic sensation to Marlin and other big game fish when they strike it, resulting in faster hook-ups and less thrown baits. These lures were designed from years of tournament fishing experience and championships, and when rigged properly and set in the right trolling pattern, they will deliver world-class results. An added benefit of the soft resin head design is that it is less brittle and easier to handle than the hard head lures which easily crack or shatter when they are dropped.

Begin with the outer skirt. To determine where to make your cut, examine the distance between the skirt seat and the tail end of the lure. You want the skirt neck to rest in the skirt seat when you slide the skirt onto the lure (the skirt seat is the deepest part of the lure head’s notch securing the skirt). Also, you want to cut the end of the skirt so it’s about even with the tail end of the lure, enabling the skirt to lie smoothly against itself when pulled into position.

Slide the freshly cut skirt on the top notch of the lure head. Skirts should fit the lure tightly. It helps to use a rotating motion to slide the skirt into the correct position. If the skirt has lateral lines, try to line them up with the eyes or sides of the lure. Also, if the skirt is split by dark and light color, try to rotate the skirt to a point where the dark color is on top and the light color is on the bottom. By doing this, your lure will more closely resemble prey. The neck of the skirt should fit perfectly into the skirt seat on the lure. Lastly flip the lure skirt inside out.
XS
To start the second skirt, follow the above steps but now, place on the lower notch. Remember to line up lateral lines and/or dark and light colors accordingly. Do not slide the inner skirt all the way up to the outer skirt just yet. Take the Zap A Gap and glue the top of the inner skirt on the lower notch. Then take and slide the inner skirt tightly against the base of the outer skirt.

SKIRTING A LURE Required Tools To complete this replacement you will need: •
2 of the correctly sized skirts
•
Zap A Gap Adhesive
•
Sharp Scissors
•
An instrument that will help push the lure up onto the head (for example, chop sticks, drum sticks, sharpie marker, etc...)
Now using the Zap A Gap glue the outer skirt at the base of the top notch. Make sure both the outer and inner skirts are seated tightly against the neck on the lure head and in the correct position.
The transition from the lure head to the skirts should be smooth, with no abnormal bulges from excess material or incorrect positioning. If the lures profile is the desired profile, trim the skirt to the desired even length and let the glue dry as recommended.

FLUOROCARBON LEADER
Triple Fish Fluorocarbon Leader offers a great value for inshore and offshore anglers alike. Now you can step up to using fluorocarbon leader without stepping into the poor house. Triple Fish fluorocarbon is made from 100% polyvinylidene fluoride which closely matches the light refractivity of water and is virtually invisible underwater. It is heavier than monofilament so it has a faster sink rate. And it is also more abrasion resistant than mono, so it stands up well to chaffing and basic wear-and-tear. Triple Fish Fluorocarbon Leader
MONOFILAMENT LEADER No matter where you’re headed or what you’re headed for, Triple Fish Monofilament Leader provides a great combination of quality and value. This rugged mono stands up well to chaffing, bottom bouncing, surf fishing, and trolling and it is economy-priced for anglers looking to shed costs without shedding reliability. Triple Fish mono leader is available in clear and camo colors in a wide range of breaking strengths and lengths for nearly all fishing trips.

KNOTTABLE
NYLON COATED 1X19 STAINLESS STEEL LEADER WIRE Surflon Micro Ultra 19 strand is more flexible than our Surflon 1x7 (page 62), but not as flexible as our Surflon Micro Supreme 7x7 (page 60). Surflon Micro Ultra has a smooth nylon coating that adds kink resistance, provides longer life, and makes the wire easy to knot. You can attach this leader wire using common monofilament knots such as the Albright Knot, Clinch Knot, Nail Knot, Perfection Loop, Surgeon’s Loop, Uni-Knot, etc... Low stretch and high sensitivity allow for fast hook sets and remarkable performance. The limp, supple qualities make it especially well-suited for fly fishing tippet and predator leaders where life-like bait presentation is required along with strong bite protection. Surflon Micro Ultra is an economical alternative to Surflon Micro Supreme and an excellent leader wire for Barracuda, Billfish, Bluefish, King Mackerel, Shark, Wahoo, and other game fish. Made in USA by AFW.

SURFLON MICRO ULTRA
Perhaps the best leader wire available! Surflon Micro Supreme is miniature 49 strand stainless steel wire that is extremely flexible and kink resistant. This wire is ideal for many types of sport fishing because it can be knotted to your bait and line like monofilament, it provides greater flexibility and less stretch than monofilament, and is generally smaller diameter per pound test, and therefore, less visible in the water. Surflon Micro Supreme is extra limp and has virtually no memory or stretch. The wire enhances the action of live and artificial baits and adds a level of realism never before attainable using wire or other leader materials such as monofilament and fluorocarbon. This wire is ideal for presenting life-like bait at any depth and can fool tackle-shy Billfish while withstanding the violent razor-sharp strikes of King Mackerel and Shark. Excellent for casting flies and tempting the most discriminating toothy fish to the surface. No other wire offers more realistic action both above and below the water. Low elasticity and high sensitivity allow you to set hooks faster and with more accuracy. Attach using common monofilament knots such as the Albright Knot, Clinch Knot, Nail Knot, Perfection Loop, Surgeon’s Loop, or Uni-Knot. Made in USA by AFW.

SURFLON MICRO WIRES TIE AS EASY AS MONOFILAMENT AND HAVE THE STRENGTH OF STAINLESS STEEL!
THE ORIGINAL KNOTTABLE LEADER WIRE SINCE 1995!
AFW’s MINIATURE NYLON COATED 7x7 & 1x19 LEADER WIRE - While you do not need wire leader to catch prized species such as Billfish, Sailfish, Tarpon, or Striped Bass, many anglers use wire to prevent bite-offs from non-targeted toothy fish that often hit their bait. Single strand wire and other brands of multi-strand wire are stiff and can spook tackleshy fish such as Billfish and Tarpon. AFW’s miniature nylon coated 7x7 and 1x19 stainless steel wires behave more like monofilament and provide an increased level of natural bait action along with a more realistic presentation. These wires can be knotted to your bait & line like mono, combine higher breaking strengths in smaller diameters, and deliver reduced visibility and maximum bite protection. Diameter for diameter, absolutely no other multi-strand fishing wires offer more flexibility and strength!

NYLON COATED 1X7 STAINLESS STEEL LEADER WIRE
BLOOD RED NYLON COATED 1X7 STAINLESS STEEL
Surflon 1x7 is a great all-around leader wire for toothy fish. This wire is our Surfstrand 1x7 stainless steel with a smooth coating of nylon. A specially selected grade of nylon, tough yet flexible, is used to seal out water, reduce visibility, and improve the life of the line. Compared to old style 1x3 construction, Surflon’s 1x7 construction offers higher break strength and more realistic action. Surflon 1x7 is an effective leader wire for hard-charging, toothy fish such as Bluefish, Muskie and Mackerel. Made in USA by AFW.
Bleeding Leader Wire is the World’s First Blood Red nylon coated leader wire. The unique red nylon coating mimics actual blood in top water fishing conditions to attract fish. In deeper water, the color Red is filtered out faster than other colors on the spectrum and ‘vanishes’ to fish. Bleeding Leader Wire is ideal for all types of toothy fish and is made from our strong Surflon 1X7 stainless steel leader wire. Made in USA by AFW.

STEP 2. Pass the wire back through the sleeve to create a loop. Align wires next to each other inside the sleeve.
Kit contains a 30 ft. (9.2m) spool of 30 lb. (14kg) Black Surflon 1x7 leader wire, 36 pieces no. 3 Black Crimping Sleeves, and Lightweight Crimping Pliers for making leaders and rigs. Convenient all-inone package is a value versus buying components separately.

STEP 3. Firmly crimp the sleeve and wire using special crimping pliers. Two side-by-side compressions may be necessary if the sleeve is longer than the width of the crimping tool. TIP: When matching sleeves to wire, use singlebarrel sleeves with an inside diameter of more than twice the wire diameter you are crimping. For double-barrel sleeves, use a sleeve size slightly larger than the wire diameter.

DOWNRIGGER BRAID If you’re really serious about fishing with downriggers, it’s time to get the Downrigger Braid advantage. This braided fiber line will help get your lures deep while providing a more stealthy approach to wary game fish. Downrigger Braid “cuts” the water smoothly with less resistance than cable or monofilament and it is thinner per rated test than either material. That means you’ll experience less blow-back at trolling speeds. Less blow-back equals greater depth capabilities. Plus, it won’t generate the hum or bubble stream associated with downrigger cable which can spook some game fish. Downrigger Braid is the best improvement to controlled depth fishing since the invention of the downrigger. Made in USA.

CAMO COLOR VARIATIONS The purpose of the camouflage finish is to minimize light reflections and reduce the shine and brightness of the wire - making it less visible to fish. Our unique camouflaged brown finish is achieved through a natural oxidation process. Due to many variables in this process, the color will vary from light brown to a dark purple. Please see the photos to the left demonstrating this color variation.

BARE 1X7 STAINLESS STEEL LEADER WIRE
BARE 7X7 STAINLESS STEEL LEADER/TRACE WIRE
Surfstrand 1x7 is made of corrosion resistant, spring temper stainless steel. Compared to our competitor’s old style 1x3 construction, Surfstrand’s 1x7 construction offers higher break strength and more realistic action. The wire is specially stranded to deliver superior kink resistance, and the high strength of stainless makes this an excellent wire for leaders, lures, and trolling. Camouflaged Brown finish minimizes reflections and disappears beneath the water. Attach Surfstrand using crimping sleeves and crimping pliers or tie with a Figure 8 Knot. Made in USA by AFW.
Surfstrand Micro Supreme 7x7 feels more like thread than wire and is more flexible than our 1x19 variety, listed below. This miniature 49 Strand stainless steel trace wire slips through the water and has virtually no memory or stretch. Surfstrand Micro Supreme 7x7 is the preferred wire of professional European Pike and Walleye (Zander) anglers. Camouflaged Brown finish blends well in most rivers and lakes reducing visibility. An outstanding leader/trace wire for finicky toothy critters! Made in USA by AFW.

SURFSTRAND COPPER
MONEL TROLLING WIRE
Surfstrand Copper Trolling wire is bare, 1x7 stranded copper wire that has 13% greater density than stainless steel. This line sinks more rapidly than stainless steel, and allows you to troll deeper with less line in the water. The 1x7 strand construction gives this line good flexibility and kink resistance. Many anglers report increased strike rates with the use of copper terminal tackle - believing that the positive ions in copper help to attract fish. Made in USA by AFW.
AFW’s single strand soft Monel Trolling Wire is the ultimate line for wire fishing. Special processing by AFW gives the wire exceptional kink resistance with excellent ductility and high strength. This nickel-copper alloy provides maximum corrosion resistance in fresh and saltwater and, due to its greater density, sinks more rapidly and stays deeper than stainless steel and other trolling lines. Excellent wire for dragging baits at depth and hooking hard-charging game fish such as Striped Bass and Wahoo. Made in USA by AFW.

AFW’s Stainless Steel Trolling Wire is soft single strand wire carefully annealed for maximum flexibility and strength. The line sinks rapidly allowing the angler to get down deep using shorter lengths of line. It is kink and abrasion resistant and ideal for both fresh and saltwater trolling. The high strength of 300 series stainless steel results in a small diameter per pound test providing greater reel capacity. Great for reaching Stripers and other fish in deep waters.

2-CONNECTED SPOOLS, AN AFW EXCLUSIVE! MARKING WIRE LINE FOR TROLLING
Wire line fishing is one of the oldest and most reliable techniques to control the depth of trolling lures. Typically stainless steel wire sinks at the rate of one foot of depth for every ten feet of wire in the water. This formula is based on a trolling speed of 3 to 4 knots using a medium weight trolling lure. Umbrella rigs tend to run deeper than lures and spoons, and heavier lures and spoons will run deeper than lighter ones. Variables such as boat speed, weight and shape of the lure, and water current will affect depth. The following method for marking trolling wire is used by anglers who specialize in pursuing striped bass and bluefish in Mid Atlantic waters and is based on 300’ of stainless steel or Monel trolling wire rated at 40 to 60 pound test.
STEP 5: Wrap a section of colored copper wire around the trolling wire as shown with the middle centered over the bends you just made.
STEP 1: Purchase a length of telephone wire at any hardware or home improvement store and strip off a length of outer sheath. Then cut at least four sets of each color 5” long. Spool 200 yards of 50-lb monofilament backing on the reel. Hi-Seas Quattro Plus or Grand Slam monofilament is ideal.
STEP 2: Attach a Mighty-Mini 100% stainless steel swivel to the end of the wire on the spool using a haywire twist (see AFW Haywire Twist Tool on page 85) and tie the monofilament backing from your trolling reel to the other side. Be sure the swivel you select fits smoothly through the guides on your trolling rod.
STEP 3: Measure the first fifty feet of wire and mark it. Using HI-SEAS long nose pliers, put about a dozen tiny bends in the wire being careful not to kink it.
STEP 4: The finished bends should look like this.
STEP 6: Use a butane lighter to heat the plastic coating for a couple seconds so it fuses together. Do not burn it. Repeat this with a different color wire at 100’, 150’, 200’ and 250’ intervals from the terminal end. This will provide different colored depth markers corresponding to 10’, 15’, 20’ and 25’. The lure will be at approximately 30’ when you are down to the mono backing and all 300’ of wire is in the water.

Mighty-Mini components are 100% stainless steel and are 3 times stronger than conventional components of the same size. Smart anglers know that terminal tackle can spook wary game fish. This line of compact, 100% stainless steel crane swivels was engineered to be smaller and stronger than the leading brands of swivels on the market. Now you can use swivels for your rigs, and snap swivels for attaching lures, that are less visible and significantly more powerful. Mighty-Mini Swivels also have less drag and provide enhanced rotation for more strikes. For decades, crane swivels were manufactured from brass because it is a relatively corrosion resistant material and easy to manufacture. Still today, the leading brand of mini swivels continues to use brass bodies with stainless steel rings that cannot match the strength of Mighty Mini Swivels. Recent advances in manufacturing enable us to bring you these revolutionary, smaller and stronger components. Mighty Mini Swivels are available in gunmetal black finish with and without stainless steel tournament-grade snaps for the ultimate in connection protection.

SNAPPER POPPER RIG
A Snapper Popper rig is designed to catch small bluefish, and is especially popular in the Northeast USA. This lure features a tube dressing which is designed to mimic a small fish. The goal is to draw attention to the lure as you ‘pop’ the float against the water. As the lure moves up and down beneath the float, bluefish hear the popping and instinctively think other bluefish are feeding and will come in to feed. The tubing that surrounds the lure itself is designed to withstand the assault that a bluefish gives. Tip: Snapper Popper rigs work best when fishing in a school of bluefish.
• Ideal for Small Bluefish • Weighted Popping Float • #6 Hook with Natural Color Tube Dressing

PLANERS
The AFW Planer is an innovative and precisely balanced piece of fishing gear. A lead weight acts as a keel and balance to keep the planer running straight at controlled depths. When the planer is in the water in diving position, water pressure against the blade forces the planer down. When a fish strikes, the balance is changed. The planer then trips and produces a slight upward drag, which allows you to fight your fish rather than a heavy lead sinker. AFW Planers are available in Sizes 1, 2, 3, 4, plus a Size 8 Braced Planer Kit.

NEW!
BULK WIRE FOR TACKLE MANUFACTURERS
With its bright white base and fluorescent orange bands, the AFW Shark Float sits on top of the water to provide a visual reference on the position of your line. Balloon floats can break and litter the ocean, but this foam float is durable and reusable so it offers an environmentally friendlier way to control the depth of your baits, especially while drifting. The anti-chaffing straw is included to prevent cable damage to the float by protecting the foam against friction.

AFW/HI-SEAS has the experience, skill, and desire to help you with your special fishing wire and cable requirements. We can supply wire, strand, and cable cut to length, in bundles or hanks, or on a large selection of coil and spool dimensions and weights not listed in this catalog. For more information please contact our Sales office.
PLANOGRAM PROGRAMS
We can design custom planograms around store requirements. We can prepare large, full line planograms containing a broad variety of items, or smaller, more product-specific panels. Most of our retail products are dimensionally correct for merchandising on pegboard and slatwall. Some of our larger, heavier retail products can be shelved or placed on the base deck. All retail products contain UPC labeling.
PEGBOARD SPINNERS
The 2-sided and 4-sided spinner displays are the perfect solution for retailers looking to add a comprehensive range of tackle in a limited space. Our 2-sided, free-standing spinner takes up little more than one square foot of floor space, and can hold a good selection of products. We can provide custom header signs for your store (see examples below). Both displays are durable and easy to assemble.
