• As I said, the brown looks great in workshops and has a lower durometer rating of 80A vs the green at 88A, so it is softer and grips better.

  Here is a quote from the site about the green
  
  

  Quote

  This rough green (also matte or textured) Polycord® equivalent round polyurethane cord has a textured surface that is designed to slip a little. The rough surface has a low coefficient of friction which is useful in accumulation zones, or where jams happen frequently. Use this material in place of standard clear polyurethane when you need the belt to "give" a little, instead of overheating or abrading.

  
  And before a fellow member pointed out the brown, I had bought the clear. You simply melt both ends and stick them together to “weld” them. This shows how strong the joint is
