Line STROFT GTP type E: The “E” stands for “even”, i.e. “even” or “even”. Type E is just as round and tightly braided as Type R. The main difference: the peak UHMWPE individual fibers are distributed over more strands than is the case with Type R, which means that the dimples are significantly smaller. They are hardly noticeable anymore, which you can feel immediately when you stroke the surface of this line. Although the surface smoothness that characterizes Type S is not quite achieved here (Type S is still undisputed in the market comparison), this Type E already presents a surface quality that is clearly superior to other so-called 8X braids.
And this "evenness" in the surface is not created by "grouting" or "coating", as is often the case, but rather it is created solely by the braiding process, which has been further modified and refined here compared to Type R. As a result, this line is significantly quieter than the Type R when casting and running through the rings and is therefore the right alternative for all sport fishermen who find the running noise of the R-Type annoying. Thanks to the very tight braiding, it is of course also possible to create a self-clamping spliced loop.
The following colors are available: water gray, citrus yellow, may green, salmon orange, olive green and multicolor (with the color multicolor, the line color changes every 10 meters and there are markings with 1m and 5m.).
