Product Information
Full details
The Fox Rage Predator Red Trace Crimp Covers are essential components for predator anglers who prioritize clean, tangle-free, and professional-looking rigs. Ideal for those crafting custom wire or fluorocarbon traces, these sleeves provide a streamlined finish that prevents debris from snagging on crimps and swivels during retrieval. While these covers are highly effective at smoothing out rig profiles, users should note that they are specifically sized for standard crimp dimensions, meaning they may not fit oversized or heavy-duty connections.

FAQs
How many pieces are in a pack?
Each pack contains 25 individual red trace crimp covers.
Will these fit any wire gauge?
They are designed for standard predator fishing crimps; they may be too tight for heavy-duty, thick-gauge wires.
Do I need glue to keep them in place?
Generally, the friction fit is sufficient, but glue can be used if you want a permanent, high-security attachment.
Can these be reused?
Yes, they can be removed and reused if they remain in good condition after the trace is cut.
Are they visible to fish?
The red color is highly visible to anglers, but in deeper water or murky conditions, it is often seen as a neutral or attractor element by predatory fish.
Troubleshooting
Sleeve keeps sliding off the crimp
Ensure you are using the correct size crimp. If the fit remains loose, apply a tiny drop of superglue to the crimp before sliding the sleeve into place.
Sleeve is difficult to slide over the crimp
Apply a light touch of water or silicone lubricant to the inside of the sleeve to reduce friction during installation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply slide the cover onto your trace material before attaching your swivel or hook. Once the crimp is secured, pull the rubber sleeve over the connection until it sits flush against the swivel eye.
Compatibility: These covers are compatible with standard-sized fishing crimps typically used for predator traces.
Care: After a fishing session, rinse the covers with fresh water to remove salt or silt deposits. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the integrity of the rubber material and prevent premature degradation.
