Product Information
Full details
The Nash Quick Change Helicopter Swivel is designed for carp anglers who prioritize efficiency and speed when adjusting their terminal tackle setups. It provides the key benefit of instant rig changes through a specialized quick-change hook design, significantly reducing downtime between casts. While it offers excellent performance for helicopter-style rigs, users should note that it requires a dedicated sleeve to properly secure the hooklink connection to prevent it from coming undone during a fight.

FAQs
How many swivels come in a pack?
Each pack contains ten individual Nash Quick Change Helicopter Swivels.
Do I need special tools to change the rigs?
No, the design is manual and allows for instant removal and addition of rigs by hand.
Is the Teflon coating durable?
Yes, the coating is designed to be tough and low-visibility, though it should be handled with care to avoid deep scratches.
Can I use this with any leader material?
It is designed for helicopter setups and is compatible with most standard leadcore, fluorocarbon, and lead-free leaders.
Will this swivel work for non-helicopter rigs?
It is specifically optimized for helicopter end tackle; we do not recommend it for running rig or lead clip setups.
Troubleshooting
Hooklink sliding off the swivel
Ensure that a high-quality rig sleeve is being used and that it is pushed firmly over the quick-change hook to lock the loop in place.
Swivel not rotating freely
Check the leader for debris or sediment buildup. Rinse with clean water and inspect the large eye for any microscopic obstructions.

Cons
- Requires the use of a sleeve to keep the link secure
- Not intended for non-helicopter rig configurations
- Smaller size requires careful handling when wet
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the swivel, slide the large eye onto your leader or helicopter rig setup. When attaching a hooklink, form a small loop at the end of your hooklink material, slide it over the quick-change hook, and secure the connection by sliding a matching rig sleeve over the swivel eye and the connection point. This sleeve prevents the hooklink from slipping off the swivel during the retrieve or while fighting a fish.
Care instructions involve keeping the swivels dry after a session to prevent potential grit build-up in the swivel eye. Because of the Teflon coating, avoid using aggressive metal pliers on the coating to prevent scratching, which could expose the base metal and increase visibility.
