The DMM nylon slings are wider and heavier than Dynatec for the same strength rating. However, it is a good all-round material that withstands repeated flexing better than Dynatec, has greater shock absorbsion, is less expensive and has a higher melting point. This makes nylon slings appropriate for heavy use or where weight isn't a prime consideration.

The DMM Dynatec 8mm Open Slings are great keeping down the weight of your rack and are just as strong as their thicker variants. These skinny slings are particularly useful for narrow thread protection and they feature a plastic binding over the stitching for abrasion resistance. They are rated the same as the 11mm version (22kN).

The DMM Dynatec 11mm Quickdraw Tapes are individual quickdraw extenders that can be used in between two karabiners to make a quickdraw. One end of the tape has a sewn-in 'tadpole' retainer of rubber which a karabiner can thread through and then clip onto the rope, making the karabiner less likely to spin or become cross-loaded by the rope in the event of a fall. The longer lengths are useful for trad climbing, particularly single rope use as there is less chance of rope drag and movement lifting out placed protection.

The DMM Dynatec 11mm Open Slings can be used for belays, running belays and to form a quickdraw using 2 karabiners, they are made with Dyneema® and rated at 22kN.

This variable width nylon dogbone is great for making up sport quickdraws, or replacing them at activity/climbing centres. The sling tapers to 16mm at each end to hold the carabiners in the correct orientation, and has a rubber keeper to keep the rope end biner from cross loading. The middle of the sling is a comfortable 26mm in case you need to dog up a route. We sell 12cm, and 18cm length options incase you need an extended quickdraw.

The DMM Nylon 26mm Open Slings are very strong and durable nylon slings ideal for centre use. These are the strongest tape in DMM's range, rated at a massive 32kN. When strength and longevity are paramount these are the ones.

The DMM Nylon 16mm Open Slings are wider and heavier than the Dynatec slings and are a great option for beginners or use in outdoor activity centres. Although they are rated no higher than dyneema slings, there is more material involved and so they offer a greater safety margin when dragged over a sharp edge. The extra width may give beginners more confidence too.
