At first glance, Hardy nylon appears to be inferior in strength to most all the other materials. However, when you take a closer look at its size to break strength ratio it is quite strong, especially in 2X and 4X – the difference is nearly a full size thinner in diameter than other materials.
Apparently in Europe and the UK there has been a huge push for manufactures to advertise their size and breaking strength accurately. We probably should have tested Hardy 1X, 3X, and 5X since they would be equally as thick as everyone else’s 2X, 4X, and 6X. Unfortunately we didn’t become fully aware of the diameter difference until it was too late. One thing’s for sure – the price is right! It is one of the least expensive materials out there per yard…
