Surgaine Dyneema® SK78 – thin – black

Description

Surgaine Dyneema ® SK78 – thin – Black

Dyneema ® SK78 48-spindle high-swelling yarn. Ideal for making sheathed loops and estropes, or for sheathing standing rigging components not exposed to chafe, such as textile shrouds.

To overcast a manoeuvre exposed to chafe, we recommend the use of thick DyneemaDyneema sheaves, ideal for use in masthead sheaves.

Dyneema is an extremely slippery fiber and should not be used in stoppers.

Lancelin 48-shaft Dyneema SK78 is slightly thinner than the 32-shaft version and has better swelling.

It makes loops easier to create.

How to choose the right sheath diameter for your Ropes:

• Surgaine: 06 – 10 mm for Ropes: 06 – 10 mm (08 mm max if spliced)
• Surgaine: 08 – 12 mm for Ropes: 08 – 12 mm (10 mm max if spliced)
• Surgaine: 10 – 14 mm for Ropes: 10 – 14 mm (12 mm max if spliced)
• Surgaine: 12 – 16 mm for Ropes: 12 – 16 mm (14 mm max if spliced)
• Surgaine: 16 – 20 mm for Ropes: 16 – 20 mm (16 mm max if spliced)

Lancelin’s Black Dyneema® SK78 is dyed and smeared in the mass for a longer-lasting color and greater resistance to salt and UV rays.
