I'm looking at Spectra or Dyneema- pros and cons, know any suppliers for small amounts?

pulled this off site that seems industrial oriented (as in 200yd rolls)-

The following properties characterize Spectra fiber:

  • High flex strength
    • Good UV resistance (comparable to polyester)
      • Very high initial modulus numbers
        • Superior breaking strength
          • Susceptible to creep
