Features
The 24 Plait Polyester Sheath gives this rope excellent abrasion resistance, which perfectly complements its very good tensile strength thanks to its Dyneema® core. Easily splicable braid, particularly recommended for sheets and halyards. For running backstays with long splices on bar thimbles, the Dyneema® SK99 core is recommended
