Nylon (PA) monofilament dominates the fishing line market — it accounts for 70.3% of the global monofilament market by value (USD 162.18M in 2025), and fishing plus agriculture together represent nearly 60% of total monofilament demand (pmarketresearch, 2026). Jiamei's PA fishing line extrusion line — capacity up to 5040kg per 24 hours — produces high-tenacity PA6/PA66 nylon monofilament on a continuous, PLC-controlled line. In this article: why nylon leads, how the line works, full specifications, and answers to common buyer questions.
Nylon's combination of properties is hard to beat for fishing line:
High tensile strength and elasticity — nylon stretches to absorb shock from a striking fish, reducing break-offs.
Excellent knot strength — a critical safety factor where line joins terminal tackle.
Abrasion resistance — holds up against rocks, structure, and toothy fish.
Low memory — quality PA line lays straight off the spool with fewer coils and tangles.
Market structure reinforces the lead. North America captured the largest regional share (USD 91.43M) on active fishing and automotive demand, while Asia-Pacific paces faster growth, driven by rapid aquaculture expansion (pmarketresearch, 2026). In China, Zhejiang and Shandong producers are retrofitting extrusion capacity toward bio-based polyamides under national dual-carbon goals; in Japan, commercial fishing fleets are piloting closed-loop take-back programs for spent nylon line (markwideresearch, 2026). For producers, that means demand is both large and shifting toward higher-spec, more sustainable grades — exactly where a well-built line pays off. That demand is why a nylon fishing line extrusion line tuned for PA6/PA66 stays the most-requested configuration among our PA customers.
Property | PA (Nylon) | PP / HDPE |
Tensile strength | Highest of the four polymers | Lower |
Elasticity / shock absorption | High | Low (stiff) |
Knot strength | Excellent | Moderate |
Abrasion resistance | Excellent | Good |
Wet behavior | Absorbs some water (minor strength loss) | Floats, unaffected |
The line converts PA6/PA66 resin pellets into uniform, high-tenacity fishing line through a continuous, automated process. As a complete fishing line manufacturing machine, it replaces the older batch-and-rewind setups that required manual handling between stages:
Automatic loading hopper — metered, dust-free resin feed.
Extrusion — a single-screw extruder (nitriding-treated, with pressure sensor and metering pump) melts and forces melt through a spinneret; change spinneret holes to change line diameter.
Cooling water tank — steady-temperature bath sets the filament and keeps it soft and glossy.
No.1 drawing roller — first-stage orientation stretch.
Hot water tank — re-heats for the next draw stage.
No.2 drawing roller — second-stage stretch for higher tenacity.
Hot air oven + No.3 drawing roller (optional multi-oven design) — extra heating ovens produce higher-quality fishing line with tighter evenness.
Auto winder — each winding head has its own motor; fishing line is wound for hank (skein) package per customer requirement.
The entire line uses a Delta-frequency advanced PLC with touch-screen control for stable, low-consumption operation. Machines are inspected and test-run before delivery, so they go into production immediately on arrival.
Jiamei's pa fishing line extrusion line is available in eight standard models (JM100/JM110 also offered on request). Winder count is configured to your target line diameter and capacity. Whether you need a compact pa fishing line machine for a small workshop or a high-output JM90 for industrial volume, every model shares the same PLC-controlled drawing and winding architecture. Beyond fishing, the same platform can be configured as a nylon monofilament extrusion machine for brush, webbing, and industrial yarn.
Screw Diameter | Max Capacity |
65 mm | 70 kg/hr |
80 mm | 85 kg/hr |
90 mm | 125 kg/hr |
100 mm | 170 kg/hr |
110 mm | 190 kg/hr |
120 mm | 210 kg/hr |

The line produces monofilament from as fine as 0.06 mm (used for fine applications such as mascara brush) up to 2–3 mm for brush and heavy industrial grades; for fishing line, common diameters sit in the 0.10–1.0 mm range. Winding is configured to customer request — fishing line is typically wound for hank package, while trimmer line uses a dedicated large-capacity (50–100 kg) winder.
Jiamei Machinery has manufactured extrusion machinery for over 40 years and runs its own yarn production for more than 25 years — machine designs are validated on our own floor. We hold the leading share of China's domestic monofilament extruder market, have exported to more than 50 countries, and provide A-Z solutions plus on-site installation. Every pa monofilament machine we build is test-run on our own yarn floor before shipment. For other materials and applications, read how to choose the right monofilament extruder for different materials or see our PP macro fiber production line.
It is a complete, PLC-controlled system that converts PA6/PA66 nylon resin into fishing-grade monofilament — covering extrusion, multi-stage drawing, optional extra heating ovens, and hank winding.
From 0.06 mm up to 2–3 mm; fishing line typically runs 0.10–1.0 mm. Spinneret holes are changed to switch diameters.
Fishing line is wound for hank (skein) package. Winding heads have individual motors, and designs are adapted to customer requirements.
Yes. After delivery, we dispatch engineers and skilled workers to your factory for commissioning, start-up, and operator training.
