nice to hear russ's test at 2k lbs.. My minimum standard for most non anchor non fall situations is 1600lbs.. based on 4x 200lbs times 2 for wet strength ... thats minimum.... its an old standard for repel anchor minimum strength...actualy it's double the old repel minimum standard since I always figure for wet strength which as a general rule of thumb approaches 50% dry strength..

as with all things flexibile in real world situations judgement and real experience trying to blow peices out..helps. And being only a single data point ..it's very suspect ..however it does fall within a reasonable guestimate of the likely strength of the materials..
