Nice plugs.
Over the years I've had swivels rip out/fail a number of times. Usually in smaller plugs (i.e., medium Dannys) although I've pulled one in a big Danny and even, I think, an Atom. All have been on just medium sized fish and always in older plugs, usually ones that had seen lots of use, so you are probably right about corrosion being a factor. I also think, however, that they rate swivels with a straight pull, but when used in a plug, particularly the front swivel gets strained at an extreme angle and is prone to fail. In spite of this I still often find myself using smaller swivels in plugs than I want, either to fit the grommet, or to not project too much, so I appreciate the lead on stronger hardwear.
