Description
This single braid accessory line is designed to meet the various strength, stretch, knot-holding and wear requirements. Made from HMPE Dyneema fiber, this twine yields the highest strength, lightest weight, lowest stretch and longest wear life available. The proprietary urethane coating, Samthane, binds the fibers and prevents snagging as well as increasing abrasion and UV resistance, and increasing the knot-holding capability of the twine. This is a great line for lighweight lashing applications, such as tying a block to a shackle or eyestrap in place of a pin or other stainless hardware.
