40 pound is a nice compromise. i'll bet jim will find an application for his "stealth" fishing.

Dyneema SK71 fiber is not as small as the new Honeywell Spectra™ fiber used in new Made in USA 40lb hollow spectra™.

The SK71 40lb braid has more diameter than the Honeywell 40lb braid, both are 12-strand.

The diameter for this 12 strands (75 denier per strand) is around .349mm.

Paulus has not tested this hollow line yet, but he did test the solid one.

Bryan Young has been playing with this line, but it was in 16 strands (50 denier per strand) the link is http://alantani.com/index.php?topic=4208.0.

The price is very expensive for 16 strands with 50 denier per strand, therefore, I went back and used 12 strands (75 denier per strand) to lower the cost.

For this 600 yards 5 colors 40# hollow line, the price is $149.99. The color hold up very good. By the way, Alan Tani also has couple hollow line spools in 100# and 130#.

The color does hold up, and the quality is very good.

does the color signify depth? ie, each color is 25 feet?
