Momoi JigLine MX8 : PE1.2 Braid

A super PE line that further enhances the roundness and the smoothness of JigLine TAKUMI. By adopting 8-strand PE, it has higher roundness compared to the common 4-strand PE; it also makes less squeaky rubbing sound when it touches the guide (silent mode). While reinforcing the abrasion resistance that is the weakness of the PE line, it has further enhanced its characteristics namely the smoothness, the strength, and the sensitivity. It has upgraded the abrasion resistance and the smoothness of TAKUMI, which is a high-performance line in its own right. A 5-color version suitable for jigging and casting is available from the color variation.

Summary

- Measured Ave Diameter: 0.252mm (140.0% of claimed)
- Out of Roundness: 0.064mm (25.4% variation in diameter)
- Measured Maximum Break: 28.67 lbs (114.68% of claimed 25 lbs)
- Measured Stretch @ Break: 2.58%
- Abrasion Maximum Break: 11.32 lbs (39.48% of max break)
- FG Knot Maximum Break: 22.86 lbs (79.73% of max break)
- Mass Efficiency: 724.32

Quite a good overall performance from this line by Momoi. The braid construction did however look a bit rough and it had a high diameter variation. Maximum strength was around 15% over quoted and the PE rating was 133% of the claimed figure. The MEI value was very good.
