PTFE Tubing for Dyneema Chafe
I've read quite a few threads and articles regarding various methods of Dyneema Chafe protection and haven't seen PTFE Tubing mentioned.

I was thinking that PTFE Tubing might be a good solution to stanchion pass through chafe and other chafe points on say, 3/16" and 1/4" Dyneema.

Good UV properties and ID and OD availabilities of PTFE seem to work.

Thoughts?
