How to choose tungsten beads ? (1)
Firstly the material of the fly tying beads
Difference between tungsten, brass, and lead：
Is good to know that Tungsten is the same metal with Wolfram and in PeriodicTable of Elements by Mendeleev , tungsten has the following symbol: W from Wolfram. The density of this metal is very high: 19,3grams/cmc. To have an idea the density of lead ( Symbol is Pb ) is 11,3grams/cmc. Almost half!! Density of the brass is aprox 8grams/cmc. Brass is an alloy between copper and zinc.

Next is the tungsten content
Have your own perceptions：
A tungsten with purity over 95% is expensive because technology used in producing pure metal cost. Who is telling you that will sell you fishing beads with 98% or 100% purity is wrong, because the money should be from 10 time bigger than what you find on market at this hour.

I ordered the 2.3 size beads for size 16/18 hooks. The nickle beads fit size 18 hooks but the copper, gold and silver beads were not drilled enough to fit. So 75% of the beads are unusable. I would not order these again in 2.3 or smaller size.

These are pretty good beads, however, I had some beads that had burrs which cut my tying thread. I have solved the problem by putting UV cement to cover the burrs and hold the beads in place. The photograph is of a size 18 Prince nymph.

Do not buy! I got these to make some nymphs and the silver works great but the gold bronze and black dont even start to go on a size 10 hook. And i got the 2.8 mm!

Great beads for creating nymphs on a jig hook. I have purchased and used the 2.5 and 3.3 mm beads. I found that it was helpful to have an approximate weight chart so I created one. It's in the photo. It may not be perfect but it will give you something to go by.
