Tested Dyneema (UHMwPE) Tapers BUT the TEUFELBERGER Brummel PULLED OUT!
Added 2022-07-27 00:43:46 +0000 UTCEARLY ACCESS - COMES OUT TOMORROW - I've been working on 3 dyneema break test videos and they all have some gold sprinkled in them all. Thank you for your support because this is how NOT to get sponsored. I hope Teufelberger doesn't get too mad but they probably ought to change their pdf instructions.
I was just trying to test tapers and how much of a difference it made and then Teufelberger's splice came undone. BLOG HAS MORE DETAILS & DATA https://www.hownot2.com/post/taper-tests

Yes. That's exactly what I'm thinking. AND this is where the 10,000hz load cell shines because I'm gunna need a fast dyno. But i have to figure out how to mount that thing and preserve the calibration if it wants to swing but is partially mounted with a 1" diameter screw all the way through the beam through the top eye, which could lever it against the lower part of beam. Nothings easy but I'll figure it out.

2022-07-27 18:44:37 +0000 UTCI think people are also under the impression that the brummel does the locking under load but we see it is still the bury. I have a theory that the rate of pull can drastically change the strength. Hope to test that soon
2022-07-27 16:47:43 +0000 UTCMe too! Also, I'm super glad you did the bury length test of the Brummel. I was under the mistaken impression that the extra bend bought some reduction. Thanks for setting us straight!

2022-07-27 16:26:50 +0000 UTCI am shocked it doesn't lower the strength with the extra bend honestly
2022-07-27 14:19:55 +0000 UTCYES! I have been wondering about Brummel splices forever. Awesome video, thank you!
