The X-Braid Upgrade X8 is an 8-strand multifilament braided fishing line designed to deliver a smooth, round profile with excellent sensitivity, strength and casting performance.
Using precision braiding technology, the eight-strand construction creates a more uniform line diameter and smoother surface, helping the braid travel cleanly through rod guides for improved casting distance and accuracy.
An abrasion-resistant outer coating helps protect the fibres from wear, while the dense braid construction provides the low stretch and direct feedback anglers want when fishing soft plastics, hardbodies, jigs and other lures.
The multicolour pattern also provides a useful visual reference when fishing deeper water, jigging or monitoring how much line has been deployed.
Available in generous 300m, 500m and 1000m spools, making it suitable for everything from individual spinning reels through to larger reels and multiple reel fills.

Why Choose 8-Strand Braid?
Compared with coarser braided constructions, an 8-strand braid provides a smoother and rounder line profile, making it particularly well suited to anglers who prioritise casting performance, sensitivity and quiet line movement through the guides.
It's an excellent mainline choice for pairing with a fluorocarbon or monofilament leader across a wide range of Australian lure-fishing applications.
Available Spool Lengths

500m: A versatile bulk spool for larger reels or filling multiple smaller setups.
