Nylon deteriorates when exposed to UV. If you use it for guys or anything else outdoors, plan to inspect it often and replace it occasionally. I'm not sure how to determine that its strength is not reduced too much. I suppose if you start with more than sufficient strength, you can tolerate more deterioration. I recommend using materials made for exterior applications. I haven't research which ones are best. 73 de WOØW |
