Tungsten Beads are approximately 50% heavier than brass beads of the same size. And they dont pose the environmental concerns of lead. The Tungsten Assortment contains 20 each of gold 1/8, 3/32 and 5/64 beads.
Nice little perfect set of beads for my tying class or on the river. I only wish they were labeled so I would grab the proper size when I am distracted and merely glance down to grab a bead.
I purchased this assortment because the other assortment was on "back order". Turns out this one is really poor. The small beads are so small they won't fit on any hook, even one as small as a #22. They cost almost 30 cents per bead and that is outrageous considering one size doesn't even work.
Nice and heavy. Very durable gold coating. Watch very closely what size you buy. If debating what size to buy, go one size larger if you want them to fit your hooks.
