Technical literature varies a lot in terms of applied % of breaking load etc, depending upon specific type of material (not generic UHMWPE), specific weaving, different temperatures etc etc, as I am not looking to replace my rigging but simply to have some replacement for broken pieces of rigging wire I just would like to make things simple: if I can remove some % of elongation beforehand, so much the better; if not, I'll tighten the lashing over and over again.You may well be right, but 2 tons was the load specified by the OP.
