Stephanie Kwolek was her name. Sometime around 1986 or 87, I was taking a materials science course at AM and had access to a tensile-test machine.I asked the professor if I could test a piece of 5mm Kevlar cord. I put a figure 8 knot in each end. and tied each end to the steel bar connectors. I think I had about 15 inches between the knots. It broke in the middle of the upper knot at around 10,000 pounds. The professor was quite surprised. I used the cord in my Mitchell System, from my foot to an upper Jumar, several times over a 2 year period, on some pits that were under 200 feet. At the foot attachment, I tied the Kevlar cord into a chicken-loop rig, described by James Jasek ( I think ) in a Texas Caver in the late 70's or early 80's. So that the Kevlar cord was the only thing holding my foot to the Jumar. I did not tie the cord to the Jumar eye-hole, but wrapped it around the handle and tied it off. While I would not recommend doing that now, I would say the cord is light enough to throw in the cave-pack for an emergency or as a back-up.

Before even 100 uses, some jumpers experienced line-breaks. It was a surprise, as the very thin kevlar lines were supposed to be over twice the strength of the polyester lines they replaced. In the end, I believe the failure was attributed to dirt getting into the uncoated kevlar cord and setting up deterioration due to abrasion process at a scale too small to visually observe.

Re: [Texascavers] RE: Caver's worst nightmare
The Mayor's quote is great: Tubingen�s mayor told a local newspaper that he struggled to imagine how the accident could have happened, �even when considering the most extreme adolescent fantasies. To reward such a masterly achievement with the use of 22 firefighters almost pains my soul.� - Fofo On 23/06/14 10:58, Kurt L.
