12 Strands UHMWPE Braided Ropes Offshore Hawser Mooring Ropes 220m
Our uhmwpe ropes are used for tow ropes, winch line, and any other application where strength and toughness are needed. This rope is often advertised as being 15 times stronger than steel cable. Made of UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene), this rope is made by many companies with the most common trade names of Spectra. Double treated in blue vinyl for improved handling properties and longevity.
Product Features & Applications:
UHMWPE/HMWPE is an equivalent, with ultra high molecular weight polyethylene fiber and high technology. it’s high strength, light weight, low elongation.
* Stronger: for the same dia., the strength is the same as the wire rope
* Lower Elongation: the breaking elongation is close to the wire rope
* Lighter: in the same strength, the weight is only 1/8 of the wire rope, 1/4-1/5 of the nylon rope or polyester rope, 18%-20% of the polypropylene rope
* Smaller: in the same strength,the dia. of the UHMW PE rope is 55%-60% of the nylon rope or polyester rope,45% of the polypropylene rope
* Applications: winch rope, towing, mooring system for ultra large container ships, army and navy equipment, offshore, sports equipment, electrical communications, large precision object sling, etc.
