Dimensions #3 size 310lb / 141kg
There seems to be confusion on the size of the swivels. I have only dimensions on the #3. I have a picture with a 1/8 drill bit in the eye of the swivel. The largest drill bit that I could fit in. The ruler is in centimeters. 20 mm length for # 3. I haven't test them yet but they look like good quality. I am unsure what the other size dimensions are since I do not own them. The website has specifications but does not list length dimensions etc. just strength capability.

do not order by test weight. these are very small. which is good thing.
I ordered 78lbs and it was too tiny that my 60lbs Fourocarbon just fit in the hole. So I decided to return it and ordered this 310lbs swivel. now it is the size of what cheap 70lbs swivel is. oh, wait! isn't it a good thing it is small and strong? so I am keeping 78lbs tiny swivels for my fresh water tackles.I threw away all of my swivels that I had and replaced with this MIGHTY MINI swivels. now I have more peace in mind that it will hold more than I need in even smaller appearance. my friend's 200lbs cheap soft metal swivel looks giant compared to mine.

No Way!!
I don't know why I missed the other 1-star reviews but I agree that these swivels are significantly too small for the stated strength.I'm submitting a refund request as this product is not advertised correctly.

I oredered the 400 pound swivels and because these run so small I won't be able to use them for the intended lines, in the picture yhe AFW 400 pound swivel is next to a riptail 145 pound swivel and it is about half the size

Works great, stronger and smaller then most.
These worked out great they are a lot stronger and most of all way more compact in size comparison to other standard brands. I hauled in a few over sized White Sturgeons now so far on them. Very surprised in the strength.

Small But Strong
These swivels are great and strong. I can use much smaller swivels now and this is important to keep the weight down and footprint of my gear small.

1 out of 2 is not bad. :(
I ordreed both size #10 (78lb) and size #12 (100lb) packages... the size #12 did not fare that well... it arrived with a slit/cut in the package so that only 3 arrived in the package... and a I found another 1 in the envelope... I would think somewhere between stocking at the warehouse, to picking to packaging.. the other 46 found a new home :(Re-orderd and the new shipment was fully intact. Performance of both appear to be good... season will tell.

Strength compacted.
Don't let the diminutive size discourage you from trying these, they are strong. The #7 I ordered, have handled musky up to 44" and rotated freely under load. As noted by another reviewer, they're tiny, but swivels come in standard sizing, so you know how big they are when you buy them. If you need a larger swivel, buy a numerically lower size until you get to 1/0, then they go numerically higher. Eg.#7 is smaller than #5 however #2/0 is small than #3/0, the same progression that applies to a fish hook.

Very small for the weight rating.
I bought the 100lb which ended up being #12 and they are the size of something you would see on a trout rod with 6lb test. So if you are looking for a specific size go with that size as you would in brass don't go by the weight rating of these. Lesson learned will buy bigger next time but will buy again. Seller needs to list size number as well as the weight.
