Paranix - Multi-polymer Fly Tippet (33yd)
Paranix is completely new fly tippet material that has never existed in fishing before. Hitena's R&D and polymerization/spinning technology made it possible to bring this magical multi-polymer tippet to fly fishers. With its ultra sensitivity, abrasion resistance and no memory factors, no other tippets currently existing in the market comes even close to Paranix in performance.
- PBT (PolyButylene Terephthalate) base multi-polymer
- Full size range from 0X down to 13X available and all thickness true to the specification
- Density 1.42 positions in the middle of nylon's 1.14 and fluorocarbon's 1.78 - slowly sinking and forms no slack in water
- Clearer than mono, fluorocarbon and almost no UV degradation
- Ultra sensitivity that reads any bites with just 50~70% stretch of fluorocarbon
- Super abrasion resistance at least 10 times better than fluorocarbon
- Knot strength 10~20% better than fluorocarbon
- No memory - any kinks or coils perfectly straightens once slight tension is applied
Paranix (HA48X08) Variations
- WT (HA48508) : Top of the Paranix line up with ultra sensitivity and abrasion resistance
- VT (HA48408) : Carries all superior property of Paranix but more affordable. Stretches slightly more than WT. Recommended for first time Paranix user
- XT (HA48208) : Equivalent to VT except extremely low stretch for the best sensitivity
How to choose Hitena tippet material
We have currently 4 tippet materials available - Supernix, Nynix, Paranix and Aquanix.
Supernix (HA41108)
New material multi-polymer tippet. Virtually floating on moving water with gravity of 1.09 which is even lower than mono. Super abrasion resistant
Nynix (HA40X08)
Nylon copolymer tippet. Super supple and carries very little memory. Multi-layer construction to enhance abrasion resistance and low water absorption. Abrasion resistance better than other fluoro tippets
Paranix (HA48X08)
New material multi-polymer tippet. Medium density slow sinking. Ultra abrasion resistance and sensitivity
- WT (HA48508) : Top of the Paranix line up with ultra sensitivity and abrasion resistance
- VT (HA48408) : Carries all superior property of Paranix but more affordable. Stretches slightly more than WT. Recommended for first time Paranix user
- XT (HA48208) : Equivalent to VT except extremely low stretch for the best sensitivity
Aquanix (HA42X08)
100% Fluorocarbon tippet
- LT (HA42308) : Best of the best fluorocarbon tippet available in market. Ultimate sensitivity and abrasion resistance as well as strength. Supple and soft. Much less coiling and memory
- XT (HA42208) : No other tippets in the market come close to this quality level. Moderate stretch
- ST (HA42108) : Market's premium grade fluorocarbon tippets position here but ST is still far better in abrasion resistance
