Got go ahead to get this out ,been testing it a bit and super happy with it.its 100% sk90 dyneema.totally unblended material.Tested on compounds and recurves this week and really like it .soft shot and really nice laying material..super small diameter,I'm running 22 strands on my 50 and 55 pd borders and its solid and fuzz free..they have some colors now and will have all by end of month ..
BCY 8190 is a good material,I bought some and used it when it first came out.But when they came out with BCY-X,I like it more and it's all I use now.
Hope they have some at Denton - want to check it out.
We will have some at Denton Steve. Limited color supply, not sure if the labels will be ready yet, but it will be there.
Haven't had a chance to work with it myself, but looking forward to it. I really like BCY-X myself, but for those looking for a 100% HMPE material this should be the ticket.
I have been making strings from 8125 or ts plus how does the newer materials differ in the finished string........
Cheers KIM
Hey Chad - will see you thursday to talk. Definately want some black and another color.
Tks.
How does 8190F differ from 8190?
8190F is 100% SK90 Dyneema. No GORE fiber like 8190 Universal. It's also a smaller diameter. Should be a tad faster and more stable, maybe quieter. Anxious to give it a try.
It's more creep free than regular 8190 also..it really shows in string machine ..also I've got hundreds of shots on one on my border and still hasnt moved.I'm sure your customers will like it Chad..the few I've built it for for compounds love it..
I'm anxious to try it in the MS heat. The problem with 100% Dyneema materials has always been that even the best creep just a tad in high temps.
