Full details
The Matrix Side Puller Bead Kit is an essential upgrade for anglers utilizing side puller systems, designed to protect and manage fishing elastic for improved performance. It is ideal for those who frequently adjust their elastic tension on the bank, offering a durable solution to house elastic knots securely. While the kit provides excellent utility, users should note that it is specifically designed for side puller setups and is not intended for standard top kit configurations without such a system.

FAQs
How many beads are included in one pack?
Each kit contains 5 moulded TPR beads.
Does the threader handle provide a good grip?
Yes, it features a moulded rubber handle specifically designed for comfort and grip.
Can these beads be used on all pole elastics?
They are designed for standard pole elastics used in side puller systems; ensure your elastic diameter fits within the bead's center channel.
What is the primary function of the enlarged hole?
The enlarged hole is designed to house the elastic knot securely, protecting it from damage and ensuring the elastic stays positioned correctly.
Is the threader durable?
The wire diamond eye is robust, but it should be stored carefully to avoid bending the fine wire.
Troubleshooting
Elastic difficult to thread through the bead
Ensure the knot is small and trimmed close; use the provided wire diamond eye threader to guide the elastic carefully.
Bead slipping out of the side puller slot
Check that the elastic tension is sufficient to keep the bead seated against the bush.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Durable TPR material extends the life of your fishing elastic
- Easy-to-grip threader simplifies the rigging process
- Secure knot housing prevents knot-related failures
- Compact and lightweight for easy transport in tackle boxes
Cons
- Requires a compatible side puller system to function
- Only contains 5 beads per kit, which may require multiple packs for large pole collections
- Specific design may not fit non-standard pole elastic types
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, thread your elastic through the side puller bush and then through the center of the Matrix bead. Place your knot inside the enlarged hole at the base of the bead to ensure it remains protected from friction. Regarding compatibility, this kit is designed for standard elastic diameters used in side puller systems. For maintenance, rinse the beads with clean water after use to remove any grit or debris that could abrade the elastic. Ensure the threader is kept dry when not in use to prevent the wire eye from corroding.
