Fly Tying UV Resin

Fly Tying UV Resin for Fishing Lures and Artificial Flies

UV-cured resins have become a staple in modern fly tying, especially when crafting contemporary fly patterns. These resins have largely replaced traditional epoxy, which, despite years of use, came with several drawbacks. Epoxy had to be mixed precisely and used immediately, and even then, applying it to fly heads or bodies often required a rotary dryer to prevent the resin from pooling or sagging.

Benefits of UV Resins

    Speed and convenience – simply apply and cure instantly with a UV torch, no need for constant rotation

    Versatile use – ideal for both bonding and coating fly components

    Available in a range of colours – perfect for tying nymphs and adding vibrant detail to your patterns

    Different viscosities – from thin resins for coating and reinforcing delicate materials like quills, through all-round medium viscosities, to thick resins for building up robust bodies and thoraxes

    Various finishes – choose from flexible coatings to rock-hard finishes, depending on your fly tying needs
