Not unknown for coloured Dyneema but be aware that some dark green dye excess does come off on your hands etc. to start with. I wrapped with the free end which you will want to use very carefully for unwinding, a patient art if you don't want tangling. The other end with the knot in it is not an end you want to go near, that is the far end of the line.

The current list is up to date I believe. Waiting on the arrival of some more now.

Please post on here when you get it and I will update. Ta.

no mate. not strong enough and probably impossible to splice as its so thin.

 

[Hog On Ice]

I agree probably impossible to splice. What I do for fishing line to make adjustable length lines such as tarp lines is to use a doubled line for the section that is adjustable (a foot or two at the most for tarp lines) and feed the two lines through a larks head knot tied at the tarp pull out, tighten the larks head and then put a double half knot in the two lines going through the larks head to lock it in place - to reduce the length of the adjustable section pull the free ends apart and the double half knot will move down the line - to lengthen the adjustable section slide the larks head down the line so as to reach behind the double half knot and work the double half knot further up the section using ones fingers then slide the larks head up to the double half knot

the little mesh bag is what I use to put the line into when packing up - keeps the lines from being tangled - I use one bag per line

Enough to support a Labrador perhaps but even then it might snap and drop it in a poodle!



You won't be splicing this stuff in a hurry. I've even considered using this as a very very strong sewing thread.

 

[nickliv]

It was to put easy tension guylines on tarps, id not trust my gargantuan bulk to something so spidery

Hiya, arrived today. Many thanks...

 

[Quixoticgeek]

Mine arrived today.

It has a very very strong chemically smell to it. Is this normal for Dyneema? Is there any way to get rid of it?

Has anyone found something like a line loc that works with this cord? The linelock mini's that I have don't seem to be able to grip the cord properly?

Thanks

J

 

[Midnitehound]

I suspect that it is the green dye that smells. It is newly manufactured and has been sealed under plastic so it will probably fade with air exposure. You could try wiping it with some IPA to remove the excess dye and smell.

I am not that familiar with line locs but I suspect some line that is 1mm and slippery isn't going to grip well in them. There must be an appropriate knot.

 

[Hog On Ice]

I tried a few of the usual knots - they tend to either slip or jam and that is why I started using the knot I described above

if a line tensioner is required instead of a knot then something like a bottle top tensioner probably could be made to work using a smaller hole size and possibly a couple extra holes in the middle to add friction

Thanks for that HOI. I don't suppose you have a pic to clarify your described knot for people have you? Ta.

Nope, not for me at least. Don't know about others but I don't usually have a problem with pics. Is it in jpeg format?

odd - I thought it would - here is the thread over on HikingHQ: http://hikinghq.net/forum/showthrea...of-200-lb-dyneema-fishing-line-for-tarp-lines the particular pic is the second pic on that thread
