Why do you state the Line X was the first to offer Kevlar by DuPont, when Speedliner has been offering Kevalr by DuPont for more than 10 years?

Speedliner has beating Line X and other bedliners in performance since its inception in 1995.  Using the exact same testing methods, Speedliner has a higher tensile strength, tear strength, UV, abrasion, etc.  

You can find more information at www.speedliner.com or call (800) 821-8820.  

The same standards have not been used.
Anyone can go buy Kevlar, grind it up and put it in their product.
Line-X and Dupont have worked close together to develop Kevlar that will add strength and durability. That formula is exclusive to Line-X.


Speedliner,  I didn't come on here to have a pissing match with you. I think the other members post on here stand for themselves about the quality of Line-X.
I'm not sure why you keep coming on here distorting the facts.
