Trilene Knot
The Trilene Knot is a strong reliable connection,
that resists slippage and premature failures. This knot uses two
wraps of monofilament through the hook eye to increase its
strength and durability. It can be used in joining line to
swivels, snaps, hooks and artificial lures.
The knot's unique double wrap design and ease of
tying constantly yeilds a strong, dependable connection. The
breaking strength is very high for this knot; very close to 100%
for some lines and diameters and almost always above 90%.
