Compared to utility cords or mil-spec paracords made of nylon/polyester, UHMWPE cords are much lighter and far less bulkier, convenient for outdoor carry, and easy storage with spools. Unbeatable Durability As high-tech performance cords, UHMWPE has unbeatable durability in excellent resistance to UV, chemicals, abrasion (comparable to Kevlar), almost no absorption to water, advanced cords for both home and outdoor uses, superior substitutes to steel wires, especially in water use. No Creep Being of very low stretch, and highly resistant to creep, to flex-fatigue, UHMWPE cords have a better tendency to keep strength and retain shapes under loading. Fast to deliver responses form kites for better controlling and performing actions. Longer service life, and much reducing replacement frequency for your most works. 8- or 12-strand Braid Of 8 or 12 strands hollow barid, and inherently self-lubricating, MICRO cords are easy to use and made to suit most hardwares. MYOG - MAKE YOUR OWN Read more Endless Outdoor Uses UHMWPE/HMPE, Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene, known as different trade names as Dyneema, Spectra by different manufacturers) Due to its high durability and unbeatable resistance to abrasion, UV, chemicals, UHMWPE provides endless solutions in outdoor applications, especially in marine uses. Available in 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1.0mm diameter for uses in: Whipping twine: whip around rope ends to prevent natural fraying; Lock spliced eyes for extra security; Durable stitching thread: especially for MYOG webbing products; Sewing thread and repair cord: for heavy canvas, tarps, backpacks, load-bearing equipment; Emergency fishing line and utility cords outdoors. Read more How to seal the end? Heat cut the cord and the end will self-sealed. Use whipping twine to whip the cord/rope ends or spliced eye for extra security. About Color Fastness UHMWPE fibers don't take dye very well, and it’s normal that the color will fade after exposure to water, frictions, and handlings overuse. HMPE CORDs keep high performance that won’t be influenced by color fading. On Spool Easy storage Fast to deploy in use Read more Working Load Limit (WLL) = 20% of Tensile Strength, for the longevity of the cord and safe uses Tensile Strength Also known as the labeled strength, is the average testing strength at which the new and unused cord would break when tested in laboratory condition in accordance with Cordage Institute Standard Test Methods. The load, applied in parallel to the cord, slowly increases until the cord breaks. Working Load Limit (WLL) In practical uses, various factors would impact or reduce the strength of any rope/cord, including knots in the rope, abrasion, humidity, UV, former use and care, etc. To assure safe uses, it's indispensable to adopt a safety margin in the cord/rope strength, which leads to Working Load Limit (WLL). The Working Load Limit (WLL) is determined by dividing the tensile strength by a safety factor. To assure the longevity of the cord and maintain a comfortable margin for safe uses, a 5:1 safety factor (20% of the tensile strength) is adopted and recommended for emma kites UHMWPE cord for general applications.

100% UHMWPE Micro Cord with endless uses for outdoor applications. 0.5, 0.8mm and 1.0mm diameter, hollow braid, yielding high strength, with self-lubricating smooth surface and unbeatable abrasion resistance, UHMWPE Micro Cords excels most as whipping twine to bind rope ends and spliced eyes for extra security; durable stitching cord for webbings; tough sewing thread and repair cord for heavy canvas, tarps, backpacks, load-bearing equipment; Emergency fishing line and utility cords outdoors.

Best cords for anywhere extra protection from abrasion is required. UHMWPE is highly resistant to abrasion and wears, largely extending the abrading period when compared to nylon and polyester. Go for UHMWPE micro cords as whipping twine or repair cords when your ropes or load-bearing equipment tend to abrade quickly due to intense rubs against woods and rocks.

GO LIGHTER! 15 times stronger than steel wire on strength to weight basis, made of 100% UHMWPE (also known as different trade names, Dyneema, Spectra by different manufacturers), the micro cords are much less bulky and lighter than most other utility cords while delivering higher strength. The exceptional string helps you GO LIGHTER outdoors without compromising strength and performance.

UV RESISTANT! UHMWPE retains its super performance after long-term exposure to UV. Extremely high resistance to UV, enhanced by PU coating over the cords, superior to Aramid (Kevlar, Technora, Twaron) and to most high-tech fibers.Qualified for most outdoor applications, especially as the best repair cords for marine uses.

The most loved stunt kite line as it is, with <1% stretch at working load, UHMWPE micro cords are of the least stretch for receiving quick responses from kites and resist deformation under load for longer service life. Property of zero water absorption helps survive its unbeatable quality through the damp environment (kite flying at the beach). Self-lubricating smooth surface lets cord less prone to tangle, and makes sewing and stitching a snap.
