My two cents. Kevlar is inherently far better than steel pull-pull cable from a temperature sensitivity standpoint. It hardly changes length at all. It is stronger than a comparable steel cable. However, it is far more sensitive to fraying on rough edges, like fuselage exit points. If you plan to protect against fraying, use kevlar, otherwise use steel cable.<div><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></div><div>Ron Van Putte</div><div><br><div><div>On Jan 23, 2008, at 6:37 PM, John Pavlick wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"> <div><font face="Arial" size="2">I'd like to hear the pros and cons of Kevlar vs. steel pull-pull cables.
