UNI Soft Wire is a soft fly-tying wire designed for ribbing, wire bodies, and direct-dubbing on nymphs, streamers, and emergers. Offered in Neon Silver (#344) and a broad palette of finishes, UNI Soft Wire wraps smoothly without kinking, adds controlled weight, and resists tarnish — making it a reliable choice for both hobbyist and professional fly tyers. Key Features Soft, Flexible Gauges: Available in Small (~0.008"), Medium (~0.011") and Large (~0.016") gauges for precise ribbing, counter-wrapping and body shaping. Durable, Non-Tarnishing Finish: Plated finishes maintain shine through tying and fishing for longer-lasting flies. Easy To Work: Softer temper than heavier French wire makes wrapping, direct dubbing on wire, and shaping bodies easier with less breakage. UNI Soft Wire from UNI gives fly tyers a versatile material to add weight, segmentation, and durability to patterns. Use UNI Soft Wire for ribbing to secure materials, create wire bodies for added sink/segmentation, or as a base for dubbing brushes. Because UNI is a recognized manufacturer of tying materials and is widely distributed by Hareline, you get consistent gauges and dependable color options like Neon Silver #344. Packaging & compatibility: typical packaged spools are compact for bench storage and travel kits (estimated packaged dimensions ~3.0" x 2.25" x 0.5") with an approximate packaged weight of 0.44 oz (varies slightly by gauge). UNI Soft Wire is compatible with common tying tools — vices, bobbins, whip finishers — and pairs well with tinsel, French wire and dubbing for freshwater and saltwater fly patterns.
