10mm UHMWPE rope, min breaking load 10000kg.
Dyneema and Spectra are branded versions of UHMWPE.
UHMWPE is synthesized from monomer of ethylene, which are bonded together to form the base polyethylene product. These ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene molecules are several orders of magnitude longer than those of familiar high-density polyethylene (HDPE).
This rope has been fitted to a 10,000lb hydraulic winch and used on club trips and at the 2014 Manukau Winch Challenge without breakage or any signs of fatigue.
