Hello to all,
After hearing of someone falling onto a stainless lifeline and cracking a rib, I'm giving thought to replacing my 1X19 stainless lifelines with three strand nylon. It has good strength 1,000lbs breaking, but has a stretch of 15%. I know that a line with stretch is not the most advised type, but it seems that it would act to absorb shock. Any thoughts?
Best always,
