Composed of HMWPE fibres (High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) and protected by a unique self-impregnation that increases abrasion resistance, D-Tech synthetic rope has a very high breaking load resistance.
The 12 strands construction prevents kinking, it is stronger than a steel wire rope of the same weight, which gives it significant advantages in many applications (see main uses below).
Features:
- Low elongation
- Low operating cost
- Flexible : do not make knots
- Safe and easy to handle
- Easy to splice
- Rotation resistant
Specific gravity : 0,98
Melting point : 150° C
Elongation in % of the breaking load :
- 25 % … 0,9 %
- 50 % … 1,6 %
Main uses:
- Mooring lines
- Anchor lines
- Winch
- Towing and hauling lines
- Material: HMWPE fibres
