FNP,

Your right. Although it the differences in the math don't change the rankings(!!!!They do change the rankings 3/3/07 I'm reworking the math now). I might do the analysis using cross sectional area for future testing.

My results for same selected lines adjusted for diameter differences.

"10 pound Test"......Lbs per 0.001"................Lbs per 0.001
..........................Fresh Line.....................Fatigued Line

P Line Xtra....................1.23........................1.22......98%
Stren xtra.....................1.17........................1.06......90%
Maxima Cham.................1.00........................0.56.......56%
Stren Magnathin...............0.97.......................0.77.......79%
Yozuri Clear....................0.95.......................0.85.......89%
Trilene Xtra....................0.91.......................0.72........80%
Vanish Fluorocarbon..........0.88.......................0.51........58%

Using the test results from the Sportfishing experiments on 20 pound test.
(line diameter x 1000)/Mean Wet Break Strength in lbs=strength in Lbs per 0.001" of diameter.

P Line Xtra....................1.82
Stren xtra.....................1.80
Yozuri Clear....................1.55
Trilene Xtra....................1.55
Stren Magnathin..............1.44
Vanish Fluorocarbon..........1.28
Maxima Chameleon...........1.19
