Use 308L or 316L stainless TIG wire. It will be extremely difficult to have that happen again with the TIG wire.



Bought it from NJ. I need a few things and decided to buy 100 pack. Hey by the way when are we going to meet up and show me some things? :D

That's who the wire is from. Tied a few after that nothing so far.

Totally agree. Softer wire has the ability to actually stretch if tweaked to hard. Normally happen on metal lips where you over torque the tail wrap

Thanks in advance!





 Please refrain from high jacking the thread. If you read Jnski and Winch both agree to use either 308 or 316L stainless steel wire
