5.0 Dyneema® Composite Fabric CT9HK.18/blkwov6 (Half Yard)

Dyneema® Composite Fabric (formerly Cuben Fiber) is sold by the half yard and is 54-inches wide. This is the ultimate lightweight DIY material made with a 2-layer laminate fabric: a Dyneema® layer and a 150-denier black woven polyester face layer. This fabric is tough, light, and waterproof and is ideal for backpacks, raingear and other bags.

Dyneema® Composite Fabrics offer several unmatched benefits, making them your best choice for camping and backpacking gear:

• Strong fibers: DCF is 15 times stronger than steel according to its weight per weight ratio. It is also low-stretch to reduce sagging.


• Durable construction: For gear that needs to endure unpredictable conditions, durability is vital. Dyneema® Composite Fabrics are UV and water-resistant, and they withstand tears and abrasion.
