Amsteel Blue 1/8in (3mm) Single Braid Rope is a high-performing, 12-strand braid made of 100% Dyneema® fiber. With a superior strength-to-weight ratio and very low stretch, it outperforms wire rope of the same size while remaining lightweight and buoyant. Its Dyneema® fiber and Samthane coating enhance its durability and resistance to abrasions, cuts, and flex fatigue. This is the strongest single braid offered by Samson and has been verified by ABS and approved by ABS, BV, DNV, Lloyd's, and RMRS. It also has the option of using sustainable, bio-sourced fiber to minimize environmental impact without compromising quality or strength. Recommended for split-drum winch applications, it is not suitable for use on H-bitts, capstans, or cleats if surging or rendering is necessary.

I needed something super strong and abrasion resistant. Amsteel does the trick! I probable could have used paracord, but that rots... The last thing that I want to do is to replace my hauler line. Its 45' up in a pine tree... the last time I got that line up there, I nearly beaned an old lady in her back yard with the 2 oz fishing weight launched from my sling shot.... Let's be safe and leave the elderly alone. LOL. Amsteel doesn't rot... at least I've never seen rotten amsteel... Hopefully my antenna hauling line will serve me for quite a long time.
