Serving for archery bowstring

Abstract

A braided cord consisting of braided filaments or a twisted cord of filaments in which at least a part of the filaments are high tenacity multifilaments, and the rest of the filaments are monofilaments, which is preferably used as a serving for an archery bowstring.

1 . A braided cord consisting of braided filaments or a twisted cord of filaments used as a serving for an archery bowstring, wherein a part of the filaments of the braided or twisted cord are high tenacity multifilaments and the rest of the filaments of the braided or twisted cord are monofilaments.  
     
     
         2 . The braided cord or twisted cord according to  claim 1 , wherein said high tenacity multi filaments have a strength at break of at least 15 cN/dTex, an elongation at break of 7% or less, and an initial elastic modulus of at least 500 cN/dTex.  
     
     
         3 . The braided cord or twisted cord according to  claim 1 , wherein said high tenacity multifilaments consist of multifilaments of polyolefin having a weight average molecular weight of at least 1,000,000.  
     
     
         4 . The braided cord or twisted cord according to  claim 1 , wherein said filaments of the braided or twisted cord are integrated together with a thermal adhesive resin.  
     
     
         5 . A serving for an archery bowstring comprising a braided cord consisting of braided filaments or a twisted cord of filaments, wherein a part of the filaments of the braided or twisted cord are high tenacity multifilaments and the rest of the filaments of the braided or twisted cord are monofilaments.  
     
     
         6 . The serving according to  claim 5 , wherein said high tenacity multifilaments have a strength at break of at least 15 cN/dTex, an elongation at break of 7% or less, and an initial elastic modulus of at least 500 cN/dTex.  
     
     
         7 . The serving according to  claim 5 , wherein said high tenacity multifilaments consist of multifilaments of polyolefin having a weight average molecular weight of at least 1,000,000.  
     
     
         8 . The serving according to  claim 5 , wherein said filaments of the braided or twisted cord are integrated together with a thermal adhesive resin.
