INOVA K-NECT Rolling Swivels

Overview

The INOVA K-NECT Rolling Swivels are a compact rolling fishing swivel range built for sea-rig construction, offering a super-smooth, free-rolling action between two round eyes.

Constructed with a compact body and finished in black chrome, they're designed to give a secure connection point between rig components while allowing free rotation to reduce line twist.

Available across six sizes – 12, 8, 6, 4, 2 and 1/0 – the range spans breaking strains from 20lb right up to 132lb, giving anglers a wide choice of swivel strength for different rig-building tasks.

Perfect For

These rolling swivels are suited to both shore and boat sea-fishing rig building. The smaller sizes, such as the 20lb size 12, work well as compact dropper or snood swivels on paternoster rigs, giving hooklengths a rotating attachment point independent of the main rig body.

The larger sizes, including the 77lb size 4, 95lb size 2 and 132lb size 1/0, are better suited to top-of-rig connections and heavier load-bearing tasks such as pulley rigs, where a stronger swivel is needed between the leader and mainline system.

INOVA also documents these swivels for use when retrieving lures, rigs and baits, making them a useful component for reducing twist during lure fishing as well as bait presentation.

Technical Insight

The free-rolling design lets the two eyes rotate independently of one another, which helps stop twist being transferred along the line during casting, fishing and retrieval. This is particularly useful on multi-hook paternoster rigs, where a trapped rolling swivel allows the snood to move freely without twisting the rig body.

The compact body and round-eye construction keep the swivel's profile small, minimising unwanted bulk in the terminal tackle while still providing a secure connection point. With published breaking strains ranging from 20lb to 132lb across the six sizes, anglers can match swivel strength to rig body strength, snood strength, casting load and target species, rather than relying on a single size for every position in the rig.
