Our 12-strand ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (generic dyneema) is one of the strongest materials available. Size for size it is stronger than steel, yet it is light enough to float on water. It is blue urethane coated for greater wear resistance and longevity. These ropes make excellent winch lines, pulling ropes, and lifting slings. HMPE is an extremely high strength and low stretch rope which makes it the safest choice for applications requiring the highest level of safety.
