Hi,
I cam across a roller reefing line that looks like 10mm braid on braid - nice and strong as well as easy to handle.
The interesting part is that the final (roller end) appears to be stripped of internal braid. I assume this is intentional and to make the final few m easy to coil on the roller, and save space, whilst the handled end is a nice thick rope.
I assume being braid on braid it has hence lost 50% of its strength, but as this is 10mm this should be of little concern.
Thoughts?
