Dyneema is a UHMPE (Ultra High Modulus Polyethylene, also known as UHMWPE or Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) and is available in a number of different grades.
All grades of Dyneema have excellent fatigue resistance (cyclic bending) and UV, chemical and abrasion resistance, but all have poor heat resistance due to a relatively low melting point (140 deg.C).
Dyneema offers by far the best strength to weight ratio of any material used in rope manufacture and is the material of choice for high performance cores.
100% Dyneema® SK78 delivers ultimate strength for diameter. Available in a range of colours through PU coatings.
We offer a range of Dyneema / HMPE cores to suit application preferences as well as budget.
