D 10 string material

[LBR]

12 strands will work fine.  With fewer strands you will get more stretch and creep, and less durability.

Working with D-10 is like working with Dynaflight '97.  The difference in SK75 Dyneema and SK78 Dyneema is minute.

I use D10 for some customers that want "skinny strings" and they have been very happy with the strings made from D10. So long as the bow is approved for fast flight there shouldn't be a problem.

Guys !!
Me again ,  

How many strings ( endless) i can make from 1/4 Lb
12 strands string .....approximately ....

Thanks for all answers !

20, give or take.  I base this on my getting 80 longbow strings from a pound of Dynaflight '97 (12 strand).

For the past 6ish years I have been shooting 10 strand, d 10, endless strings off my recurves and hybrids I pad the loops by serving them twice with nylon serving, I have no idea if that actually does anything but I haven't had any problems so far. I serve the nock area with Diamondback. The only reason I got into endless strings was because they looked easier to make and I'm limited on time.  As far as string creep goes when I put a new string on a bow the brace height will drop and 8th or so in the first day or so after that I've shot one string for 2 years plus and the brace height never moves. This is off of bows in the 55Ib range.

Ok ,basically i need to make endless string 3/4 bigger than i need ?

Lots of variables to consider, but that would be a good starting point.
