I don't know that I have ever compared them side by side, but I have used both. They are both fine wire hooks. If a light wire hook is what you're looking for, either should work.

Hey Cold, I had nothing better to do so I weighed them for you. After first zeroing the scale with a 100g weight. A single hook would not register on the scale. Graduation on the scale starts at 0.1 Although my scale is very accurate, it's smallest measuring unit is in grams so I had to weigh the hooks in groups of 5 .

 

For what it's worth......

 

The results where the same.

5 DAI 1130 = 0.1 g

5 TMC 2487 = 0.1 g
