D12 Max 78 is manufactured using bio-based Dyneema SK78 for guaranteed quality, strength and minimal creep. For high-load, diameter or safety critical applications, D12 MAX is the only choice, stiffer than standard D12, D12 MAX is taken to the limit of its physical properties during our "Max" manufacture process, resulting in a rope unrivalled in strength and low elongation. Material: 12 strand Dyneema ® SK78.
