Default dogbone as dyneema line terminator?

I have a carbon fiber rod leftover from another project and am wondering if it would make sense to use it (cut in pieces) as a dog bone when terminating dyneema on a roller furler (there is a hole on it) and on the mainsail for reefing cringles.



It's very slippery... I put some rigging tape and it makes it better, but still does not seem very secure. Yet, I see examples of a similar setup made by Tylaska and others:
