Hi,

anyone no where you can get 2mm dyneema? All shops seem to carry 3mm but not 2mm.

Plain line will be fine have some good splicing skills form years of sailing.

Thanks in advance.

What breaking strain are you needing?
Is the diameter of the line critical?

All marine stores seem to have 3mm as the smallest. They all say the same thing we can get 2mm but we are having trouble sourcing it.

I want to replace my mini 5th line it's 2mm dyneema. the line is 5m long

Thanks for you help.

Have you tried Phil's kite shop?

He seems to have everything kite related for repairs etc and can make the lines to suit with proper ends etc on it instead of trying to splice it.

call Phil on 84491411 I'm sure he'll be happy to help
