Quick take
Small 2mm aluminum tippet rings strung on a wire swivel for easy leader-to-tippet connections.
A ten-pack of 2mm aluminum tippet rings that sit between your leader and tippet, so swapping tippet means tying on a fresh length instead of trimming back the leader. The rings come strung on a wire swivel to keep them from getting lost. They suit fly anglers who rig droppers or change tippet often, and they work on any leader setup.
Best for
- Changing tippet frequently without shortening leader
- Tying dropper flies
- Any fly fishing leader system
Skip if
- You prefer knots only; rings are not essential
- You fish large flies; ring may be visible to fish
Strengths
- Seamless anodized aluminum connectors reduce drag
- Wire swivel prevents rings from getting lost
- Changing tippet saves leader material
Trade-offs
- Tiny rings are easy to lose despite the swivel
- Knot through ring adds slight weaken point
- May be visible to fish in gin-clear water
