I’m not sure which big company owns the Trademark name of Dynema, but let me tell you… this stuff is stronger than steel. It comes in different forms. Even the high grade fishing line is made of it, because it is so strong it can be made much thinner than normal test fishing line. I bought some a while back that was “bow thread” used in making compound bow strings. This thread was about .005 diameter and hard as heck to cut with sharp scisors. It’s claimed to be 40% stronger than Kevlar. Now it seems it is finding it’s way into the composite world
