Quick take
Ball bearing swivels with eight polished ball bearings for smooth rotation in saltwater and freshwater.
This is a 30-piece pack of black ball bearing swivels in size 0, built from stainless steel with solid welded rings. The bearing lets the swivel spin freely to cut down on line twist, and the rust-resistant finish suits both freshwater and saltwater rigs. It is a handy bulk set for anglers who tie up leaders for bass, inshore or trolling setups and want a spare on hand.
