Product Information
Full details
The Korda Dark Matter Nano Tubing is an ideal choice for carp anglers focused on long-distance casting who need a low-profile, heavy, and supple anti-tangle solution. Its key benefit is the 30% thinner profile compared to standard tubing, which significantly reduces drag and improves casting efficiency while maintaining excellent lakebed conformity. A notable caveat for users is that its smaller bore requires using it with the specific Dark Matter Nano Tail Rubbers to ensure a flush, snag-free connection during the retrieval of your rig.

FAQs
What is the maximum line diameter I can use?
The tubing is designed to accommodate fishing lines up to 0.40mm in diameter.
How long is each pack of tubing?
Each pack contains a single 2-meter length of Dark Matter Nano Tubing.
Do I need special tail rubbers for this product?
Yes, it is highly recommended to use the Dark Matter Nano Tail Rubbers to match the slimmer profile and ensure a secure fit.
Is this tubing suitable for long-distance casting?
Yes, it is specifically designed for long-distance casting as its thinner profile reduces air and water drag.
Why is the tubing green?
The green colour is intended to camouflage the setup against weeded lakebeds, making it less visible to cautious carp.
Can I use this with lead core?
This tubing is intended to be used as a standalone anti-tangle sleeve on your mainline, not as a sleeve for lead core.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty threading mainline through the tubing
Use a thin, high-quality splicing needle or stiff wire lead to guide the line through the narrow bore.
Tubing not sitting flush on the lakebed
Ensure there is enough slack in the line and check that no debris is trapped beneath the tubing near the lead attachment.
Tail rubber doesn't fit securely
Verify you are using the specific Dark Matter Nano Tail Rubber designed for this thinner tubing diameter.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the intended performance, thread the tubing onto your mainline before attaching your lead clip system. It is highly recommended to use the Dark Matter Nano Tail Rubber, as standard rubbers may be too loose or cause a bump at the connection point. The tubing is compatible with monofilament and fluorocarbon mainlines up to 0.40mm. To care for your tubing, rinse it with fresh water after sessions in silty or muddy environments to prevent grit buildup inside the bore. Inspect the tubing periodically for any kinks or abrasions after catching fish, as replacing a damaged section is essential for maintaining anti-tangle integrity.
