Product Information
Full details
The Korum Anti Tangle Sleeve (Short) is an essential terminal tackle component designed for anglers who prioritize precision and presentation in their carp or specimen setups. It is perfect for those utilizing short helicopter rig presentations, offering a reliable way to distance the rig from the lead or feeder to prevent annoying tangles during casting. While it excels in concealment and rig efficiency, users should note that at 28mm, it is specifically optimized for short-length presentations rather than long-boom applications.

Troubleshooting
Sleeve is difficult to slide over the swivel

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, thread your main line through the center of the sleeve before attaching your swivel or lead clip assembly. The sleeve should be pulled over the swivel eye or hooklink connector to create a secure, streamlined connection. Because the sleeve is made of a durable rubber compound, it is generally maintenance-free. However, it is good practice to inspect the sleeve for any signs of cracking or debris accumulation after long sessions. If the sleeve becomes stiff in cold conditions, warming it slightly with your hands before assembly can make it easier to slide over hardware.
