Description
Fine stainless steel fly tying tubes from Grays of Kilsyth in two diameters (1.5mm and 1.8mm) supplied in packs of 10. Packs of assorted sizes are also available at a discounted price. Packs of 100 are also available at a discounted price.
NOTE: Our needle tubes should be held in a purpose designed tube fly vice or tube adaptor when tying, i.e. one which grips the tube on the outside. Needle tubes should preferably not be mounted on a pin or needle as this may damage the fine plastic liner tubing. We recommend the Grays Tube Fly Adaptor for holding our needle tubes, as shown below.
Grays Needle Tubes may be dressed for use with single, double or treble hooks.
