D-Netting
Van Beelen D-Netting made with Dyneemaź high performance fibers, up to 4 times stronger than Nylon. All Dyneemaź D-netting is always produced with double knots for maximum knot tightness.
The double X-knot
We produce Dyneemaź D-Netting with double X-knots. The double X-knot cannot slip in any direction, making it the best knot for extreme situations, such as in the front of Pair trawls, or in Bottom trawls where top and lower panels have different mesh sizes.
Van Beelen produces twines made of Dyneemaź fibers with braiding and double twisting machines with equal tension in all Dyneemaź yarns. This results in Dyneemaź D-Netting with the highest breaking strengths in the entire fishing industry.
Twisted D-Netting is specially suited for use in light bottom and Pelagic-trawls enabling small trawlers to fish bigger nets or at increased speed.
Braided D-Netting is used successfully in large Pelagic nets and also in Bottom trawls for 300 HP up to 10,000 HP trawlers. With D-Netting these trawls all reduced fuel usage with 25 to 35% and fishing improved.

Van Beelen also produces D-Ropes made of Dyneemaź in a gold (impregnated) colour, which are successfully used as Head-ropes, Gilsons, Sweeps and many more applications, replacing steel wire. The result is higher net-opening, reduced towing resistance and easier handling.
Since first starting producing with Dyneemaź high performance fibers in 1991, it has proved to be an exciting new netting material. Tensile strength is 3 times that of Nylon. Abrasion resistance is better than Nylon. Dyneemaź SK 75 yarn has a tensile-strength 4 times that of Nylon! Shock absorption capacity is amazing. D-Netting is far less sensitive to sharp surfaces, hence the use of the material in bullet-proof vests.
Dyneemaź D-Netting: improved fishing, larger nets possible at greater speed, lower fuel consumption, easy handling.
