Hareline Dubbin Cone Heads - Medium 7/32" Nickel | Fly Tying Cone Heads

Overview

Hareline Dubbin Cone Heads in medium size (7/32 inches) deliver a classic metal silhouette with a tapered profile. These nickel-coated cone heads are designed to add weight where you tie, helping streamers feel balanced and more lifelike in the water. While tied, the heads can subtly influence how a pattern swings and sinks, offering a new dimension to your fly tying projects without changing your base materials.

Key benefits

• Tapered cone shape for cleaner tie-ins and a defined head profile
• Adds weight to help balance streamer patterns during casting and retrieval
• Durable coating resists wear wash after wash, season after season
• Smooth bore to ensure easy threading and reliable progress when building flies

Each cone head is part of a broader tradition from Hareline Dubbin, a brand that started in 1981 in Monroe, Oregon. From a kitchen stove with just a dozen colors of Dubbing, it has grown into a 45,000 square foot facility offering thousands of fly tying products. This heritage informs products that emphasize reliability, consistency, and easy integration into established patterns.

Real-life use and crafting tips

• Pair with lightweight materials for patterns that benefit from subtle weight to maintain form in the water.
• Experiment with different hook sizes to explore how the head weight and taper influence balance.

For hobbyists and seasoned tiers alike, these cone heads offer a practical way to refine streamer construction, with a finish that stands up to frequent tying sessions and a bore designed for smooth threading. Consider them as a versatile option when you want to enhance a pattern’s balance and presence without altering core materials.
