Chafe Cover Dyneema, 32-Plait, Black, 5mm (3-8mm) - Spool Only

As replacement covers or protective chafe sleeves, these chafe sleeves add abraision resistance and reduced friction to your high-tech lines with little increase in overall diameter.
Their 32- or 48-plait hollow construction is very thin, yet extremely strong.

32- and 48-plait construction allows these covers to open up easily, making them perfect rope covers, or tip or loop covers.
32-plait chafe cover is suitable for smaller diameter cores, while 48-plait is more easily expandable and is best for larger diameter cores.
Excellent for areas of high abrasion where Dyneema's low friction coeffiecient (making it slippery) is acceptable or desired.*

• Dyneema SK75 (high modulus polyethylene)
• Smooth running through blocks, halyard exits, etc.
• Hollow braid
• Easily tapered
• Light weight
• Low friction cut-resistant fiber provides excellent abrasion resistance
• Good UV resistance for durability
• Resistant to most common chemicals

* Chafe Cover is also available in Technora® Aramid for a higher coefficient of friction (for better grip) and excellent heat and abrasion resistance. Special Order; whole spools only.

Technora exhibits a high coefficient of friction, meaning it has a good grip and is not slippery. It is utilized in applications like chafe sleeves for lines in rope clutches and on winches to prevent line slippage and ensure a secure hold.
Technora's high friction coefficient, combined with its excellent heat resistance, makes it suitable for situations where overheating and abrasion are concerns. This makes it ideal for situations where a line may be subjected to high friction and temperatures, such as during the aggressive easing of a sheet.
Note that Technora cover sleeves have a limited lifespan due to their low UV resistance..
