Semperfli Kapok Dubbing

Semperfli Kapok Dubbing takes dry fly tying to a whole new level with its unparalleled buoyancy and ultra-fine natural fibres. Kapok Dubbing helps dry flies float longer and higher than any other natural dubbing, thanks to its hollow structure. Perfect for delicate dry flies, nymphs, and tiny patterns, it provides flawless definition without the bulk of traditional dubbing materials.

Unmatched Buoyancy and Precision
Kapok fibres are moisture-resistant and quick-drying, making them ideal for fly patterns that require exceptional flotation. Each fibre is naturally hollow, weighing only a fraction of traditional materials like cotton. This unique property ensures your dry flies maintain their buoyancy, even after extended use. Testing has shown that Kapok retains its floatation properties for days, slowly absorbing water over time, making it a trusted material for fly tyers worldwide.

Ultra-Fine Fibres for Superior Results
Measuring just 1.8cm (0.7 inches) in length and 30-36 micrometres in diameter, Kapok Dubbing is half the thickness of traditional superfine dubbings. This makes it an exceptional choice for small flies, as it avoids the bulk that can detract from intricate patterns. Whether you're tying tiny dries or creating lifelike nymphs, Kapok Dubbing ensures a neat, professional finish.

Naturally Beautiful Colours
Semperfli has mastered the art of dyeing Kapok fibres, traditionally a challenging process. Using advanced computerised dyeing technology, the fibres are dyed in consistent, repeatable, and vibrant natural tones, perfect for imitating a wide range of insects and aquatic life.
