QB2 Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 After seeing my QB2 crew crack a front tooth getting whacked in the mouth by the stainless trapeze "D" I went for a softer option and made up spectra lines running through clear plastic tubing for my AO. After Barry's recent off his Taipan I am wondering whether to go back to stainless steel just for safety's sake. Suggestions ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loose Change Posted September 11, 2008 Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 I would tend to go with the Spectra, BUT, big BUT ...check it often and at the first inkling of any sort of fraying, replace it. Harry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TornadoSport260 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 I'd go with Dynemia or Spectran with a piece of hose over it... Both are considerably stronger than Spectra... a 2.5mm Dynemia has a breaking strain of around 750kgs... I used it as trap wires on my Tornado, just gotta check it often because its not get at abrasion resistance... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
