The Beal 100% Dyneema 5mm Cord is an ultra-lightweight accessory cord designed for caving, climbing, and mountaineering applications. Crafted entirely from Dyneema®, it offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for creating foot loops and secondary anchor points. Due to its low melting point of 145°C, it is unsuitable for self-locking knots like Prusiks.
