There physical parameters are responsible for this. High tensile modulus - which gives the fiber a very high breaking strength. Far greater life span than other products. More flexible, stronger, and lighter than other products. Blue Water has one of the finest quality control systems in the world which assures top, consistent quality in all Blue Water products.
Figures listed are percent of strength retention after exposure.
The strength retention values obtained after 6 months immersion is indicated in the chart. I have purchased some spectra fabric and some spectra thread. The thread is about 4 times stronger than nylon thread of similar diameter. It is quite expensive stuff. It is quite abrasion resistant.
