This results in easy to install and easy to handle lines, that are used where efficient and safe work is required. Dyneema® floats on water.
The ropes have low stretch: after initial construction elongation, only 4% at break load.
D12 ropes with Dyneema® are becoming the new standard, and are widely used worldwide. In the Fisheries, Offshore, Shipping, and many industrial (lifting) applications.
D12 DUPLEX, with Dyneema® is more flexible and abrasion resistant construction. It is more and more applied as forerunners on tugboats.
