Fishing Line Hard Alloy Leader™
Platypus Hard Alloy Leader™ is the ultimate leader for the discerning angler.
It is manufactured in Australia using a unique blend of nylon polymers to produce an ultra-hard alloy for the ultimate in abrasion-resistance.
We have selected specific polymers for their high-tensile strength and high abrasion-resistance properties. By combining these polymers we are able to produce this unique leader.
Platypus Hard Alloy Leader™ is one of the only leaders in the world produced with a matte finish to reduce glint under the water.
Platypus Hard Alloy Leader™ has been sold into the US market as a private brand for some time and has build a considerable following amongst fly fishers around the world.
