Dyneema® vs. Steel Wire: Deeper, Stronger, Tougher

DyneemaUrmond (NL), April 5 - Deep-sea installation of sub-sea hardware projects now have a high-technology alternative to traditional steel wire rope that offers a significantly longer lifespan, lighter weight and greater safety. Rope made with super-strong Dyneema® fiber from DSM has been shown to outperform steel wire rope when used to place heavy equipment at extreme ocean depths greater than 3km. Testing by TMT Technologies in Huntington Beach, CA, showed that an 80mm rope made with Dyneema®, the world’s strongest fiber, withstood more than twice the number of bend cycles of steel wire. (number of bend cycles where 50% of steel wire is discarded)
