Summary

- Measured Ave Diameter: .376mm (163.3% of stated .230mm)
- Out of Roundness: .021mm (5.6% variation in diameter)
- Measured Breaking Strain: 35.11 lbs (106.4% of rated 33lbs)
- Abrasion Breaking Strain: 13.38 lbs (38.11% of max break)
- FG Knot Breaking Strain: 31.85 lbs (90.71% of max break)

Definitely some mixed results here. A very poor result on Tensile Strength, but excellent results in both the FG and Abrasion tests. Exceptionally consistent results across all 3 tests though with the FG Test only having a variation of 1.59lbs. Line looks well made and is very round with a deviation of only 5.59%
