Quick take
Ball bearing barrel swivels in a variety of sizes with heavy-duty stainless construction.
This is a 25-piece set of ball bearing barrel swivels from Shaddock Fishing, a size 4 pack with a brass body and welded stainless steel rings. The bearings let the swivel spin freely, which helps keep line from twisting when you run lures or leaders. It suits bass fishing and general freshwater or saltwater rigs, and works for making up leader setups. The bag holds a spread of sizes, so one purchase covers a tackle box refill.
