Fly Tying Wax Dubbing Wax is a simple but essential material for cleaner, easier, and more controlled fly tying. Designed to help dubbing fibers grip securely to tying thread, this odorless, colorless, non-drying wax makes it easier to build smooth bodies, buggy thoraxes, tapered nymphs, dry flies, streamers, and traditional fly patterns.
Because it will not alter the color, scent, or texture of your materials when used properly, this dubbing wax is a dependable choice for everything from fine dry fly dubbing to coarse natural fur. Whether you are tying delicate trout flies or working with unruly materials like wool, seal, angora goat, or deer hair, Fly Tying Wax Dubbing Wax gives you added control at the vise.
Fly Tying Wax Dubbing Wax makes dubbing easier without overcomplicating the tying process. A small amount helps fibers grab the thread, allowing you to create tighter dubbing noodles, cleaner bodies, and more durable flies. We also like that it is odorless, colorless, and non-drying, so it stays useful over time and will not stain or overpower your tying materials.
Fly Tying Wax Dubbing Wax is perfect for applying dubbing to thread, creating smooth dubbed bodies, building buggy nymph thoraxes, securing fine dry fly dubbing, controlling coarse natural fur, and improving material handling at the vise. It can also be used sparingly to help manage unruly fibers like deer tail hair or to smooth dry fingertips when handling delicate materials.
Apply a very small amount directly to the thread before adding dubbing. A little wax goes a long way, and using too much can change the feel or appearance of the material. For fine dubbing, use a light touch. For coarse fur or slippery fibers, choose the Super Sticky formula for extra grip and control.
