Nomad Hydra-X Crimping Pliers 10"

Pro-level crimping power built for bluewater anglers rigging heavy leaders for marlin, tuna and big kingfish.

The Nomad Hydra-X 10" Big Game Crimping Pliers are engineered for serious offshore work where strength, precision and reliability are non-negotiable. Designed for heavy-tackle rigging, these pliers allow you to build wind-on leaders, game traces and big pelagic rigs with total confidence.

Featuring four precision crimping sizes, they cover a wide range of leader diameters and sleeve combinations, eliminating guesswork when setting up for marlin, sailfish, tuna or large kingfish. The integrated line and wire cutter means you can trim mono, fluorocarbon or wire without reaching for another tool, saving time when the bite is on.

Constructed from marine-grade steel and finished with a PTFE Teflon anti-corrosion coating, the Hydra-X Crimping Pliers are built to withstand harsh saltwater environments. The spring-loaded ratchet jaws deliver consistent, controlled crimping pressure while reducing hand fatigue, making repetitive rigging tasks easier and more precise. When you’re chasing trophy pelagics offshore, this is the tool that keeps your connections strong and dependable.
