  2. Eye splice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eye_splice

    This technique is mostly used for Dyneema ropes. [8] The principle of a Dyneema eye is a core-to-core splice, in which a length of at least 60 times the diameter of the rope is taken back into itself. DSM advises using 60 times the diameter for coated Dyneema, and 100 times the diameter for uncoated Dyneema. For 6mm coated rope, this would mean ...

  3. Mooring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mooring

    Mooring involves (a) beaching the boat, (b) drawing in the mooring point on the line (where the marker buoy is located), (c) attaching to the mooring line to the boat, and (d) then pulling the boat out and away from the beach so that it can be accessed at all tides.

  4. Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-molecular...

    LIROS Dyneema hollow. Dyneema and Spectra are brands of lightweight high-strength oriented-strand gels spun through a spinneret. They have yield strengths as high as 2.4 GPa (350,000 psi) and density as low as 0.97 g/mL (0.035 lb/cu in) (for Dyneema SK75). [12]

  5. Dyneema Composite Fabric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyneema_Composite_Fabric

    Dyneema Composite Fabric (DCF), also known as Cuben Fiber (CTF3), is a high-performance non-woven composite material used in high-strength, low-weight applications. It is constructed from a thin sheet of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene ( UHMWPE , "Dyneema") laminated between two sheets of polyester .

  6. Distance line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distance_line

    Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (Spectra and Dyneema) is very strong and durable. Tenacity is between 35 and 48 g/D, more than 4 times the strength of nylon. It is also relatively expensive. More line can be carried on the reel with equivalent or greater strength and durability than other fibres.

  7. Offshore embedded anchors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Offshore_embedded_anchors

    The properties of chain, versus wire, mooring lines have been investigated, with chain mooring lines causing reductions in anchor capacity of up to 70%. [6] Thus, where appropriate and cost-efficient, wire mooring lines should be used. The embedded section of a mooring line contributes to the anchor's holding capacity against horizontal movement.

  8. Kite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kite

    The 9.2 feet (3 m) tall and 19.6 feet (6 m) wide Dunton-Taylor delta kite's flight was controlled by a winch system using 40,682 feet (12,400 m) of ultra high strength Dyneema line. The flight took about eight hours from ground and return.

  9. Rope - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rope

    A line may get a further distinction, for example sail control lines are known as "sheets" (e.g. A jib sheet). A halyard is a line used to raise and lower a sail, typically with a shackle on its sail end. Other maritime examples of "lines" include anchor line, mooring line, fishing line, marline. Common items include clothesline and a chalk line.
