Copper Sleeves for Superior Crimps

Copper compresses differently than aluminum. Many experienced riggers prefer the way copper sleeves form around leader material during crimping. The softer metal conforms more closely to the wire or mono, creating a tighter contact that some anglers trust more for critical connections.

Nine sizes cover the standard range from 0.8mm for light leaders to 2.8mm for heavy offshore work. The nickel plated 2.8mm option adds corrosion resistance for the largest sleeves that see the most saltwater exposure. 50 per pack at $5.99 to $8.80.

Copper Construction

Copper compresses more conformably than aluminum, wrapping tightly around leader material during crimping. Many experienced riggers prefer copper for critical connections where the sleeve-to-leader contact matters most.

Nine Sizes

0.8mm through 2.8mm covers light inshore leaders to heavy offshore applications. The range includes intermediate sizes (1.0, 1.3, 1.6, 1.9, 2.2, 2.3) that match specific leader diameters precisely.

Nickel Plated Option

The 2.8mm size is available in nickel plated copper for additional corrosion protection. The largest sleeves are used on the heaviest leaders that often stay rigged and exposed to saltwater for extended periods.

How to Use Pro Tackle Copper Crimp Sleeves

1. Select the sleeve size that fits snugly over your doubled leader

2. Thread leader through the sleeve

3. Form your loop and thread the tag end back

4. Crimp with a proper crimping tool

5. Copper compresses slightly differently than aluminum; use firm, even pressure

6. Inspect and pull test the finished crimp

Copper vs aluminum sleeves? +
Copper compresses more conformably and creates tighter contact around the leader material. Aluminum is harder and more corrosion resistant. Both hold well when properly crimped. Many experienced riggers prefer copper for critical connections. Our crimping guide covers material selection.
What sizes are available? +
0.8, 1.0, 1.3, 1.6, 1.9, 2.2, 2.3, 2.8, and 2.8 Nickel Plated. Nine options covering light to heavy leader work. Our leader chart covers sizing by species.
What is the nickel plated version? +
The 2.8mm size is available in nickel plated copper ($8.80, same as standard 2.8mm). The nickel plating adds corrosion resistance for sleeves on heavy leaders that stay rigged in saltwater. Our crimping guide covers sleeve care.
How do these compare to Billfisher sleeves? +
Billfisher sleeves are aluminum. Pro Tackle sleeves are copper. Similar size ranges and pricing. The choice comes down to your material preference: copper for conformable compression, aluminum for corrosion resistance.
What crimper works with copper sleeves? +
Same crimpers used for aluminum sleeves. The Diamond Crimper, AFW Crimper, and other standard oval-jaw crimpers all work. Copper may require slightly less force than aluminum.
50 per pack? +
Yes, all sizes come in 50-count packs. Prices range from $5.99 (0.8-1.0mm) to $8.80 (2.8mm). Stock your most-used sizes and replace frequently. Our crimping guide covers when to replace sleeves.
