Oros Strike Indicators: Less Pain, More Performance
Streamlined Design for Effortless Use
Oros strike indicators eliminate common pain points with their innovative, streamlined design. With no small parts to fumble or lose, they are centered on the line for balanced casting. The absence of exposed fastening hardware or posts ensures minimal drag and prevents line tangles.
The Soft-Lock™ Advantage
Featuring patent-pending Soft-Lock™ technology, Oros indicators enclose fastening hardware within two molded soft foam hemispheres. When closed, the hardware firmly holds the line, while the foam compresses to create friction, preventing disengagement. Over-sized threads make securing it to the line effortless.
Optimized for Wet Conditions
Oros indicators are easier to grip and tighten when wet. Water on the indicator increases friction between your skin and the surface, while reducing friction between the hemispheres by up to 35%, making line adjustments smoother.
