The W10 13 Braid Coastal from WESTIN has been developed for sea trout and saltwater anglers looking for the ultimate braided line. Our innovative construction produces a line that combines maximum strength and abrasion resistance with a super smooth surface. Made from premium Japanese Ultra High Molecular Polyethylene (UHMPE) fibers using a 13X (12+1) 12-carrier design woven around a central CORE carrier to produce an extremely round line with improved strength compared to 8X braided lines. W10 Coastal braid uses an "Advanced Ultra High PIC" construction with 56 weaves per inch for a smoother surface and increased abrasion resistance. In addition, the tighter weave of "Advanced Ultra High PIC" gives the smoothest surface available for longer, more accurate casts. Sea trout and saltwater anglers demand a line with extra stiffness to prevent wind knots caused by repeated casting in the often fierce onshore wind. To achieve this, the W10 Coastal has been given a double Dura coating to give the line more stiffness. The Dura-Coating gel process that gives the braid a smoother, hydrophobic surface, reducing water absorption and reducing friction. To achieve maximum color stability, W10 Coastal is soaked in dye tanks before being oven cured to bake in the pigment and finally sealed with a double gelcoat for extended life.
