You're getting confused here, it was actually one of Milli Vanilli's dreadlocks.

Its just the sheath that's 0.05 thicker on the 3.7 it adds nothining to the streangth, but does increase the radar signature significantly, hence why its not used in the construction of high altitude stealth hammocks.
