Default Kevlar Fishing Cable

Hi All,

First time using this type of cable for Airplanes, I have used it many times in a fishing config . I have the crimper pliers do I need to do the back loop I have seen it done both ways. Looks to me like this would be a solid connection single loop only as this is the way I would do it for a fishing setup.

I used kevlar before and you have to watch that it does not fray on anything. There is a company that sells a protective coated kevlar cable. Kevlar also tends to stretch so you have to adjust as needed.
