    That is where the UV resistance of dyneema is very appealing. No shell to crack and is very UV resistant if I’m not mistaken. Tinsile strength is higher than steel and stainless. Diameter is smaller than coated steel per strength so going with whatever fits in sheaves will just make it stronger. Flexibility it can be used in way tighter bends without damaging itself ( sub two inch).
