High Strength UHMWPE Rope with Breaking Strength up to 1000KN Custom Length and Chemical Resistance for Marine Use
Professional 12 Strand UHMWPE Rope for Demanding Offshore Drilling Platform Mooring & Lifting
Product Overview:
Our 12-Strand UHMWPE Rope represents the pinnacle of synthetic rope technology, engineered specifically for the most critical applications on offshore drilling platforms. By leveraging the extraordinary properties of Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers in an advanced 12-strand braided construction, this rope delivers unmatched strength-to-weight ratio, superior abrasion resistance, and minimal elongation. It is the ultimate choice for ensuring safety, reliability, and efficiency in mooring and lifting operations where failure is not an option.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Unmatched Strength with Lightweight Advantage: Offers a strength-to-weight ratio up to 8 times higher than steel wire rope of comparable diameter.
- Advanced 12-Strand Braided Design: Provides a perfectly balanced, torque-neutral rope that is exceptionally easy to handle, splice, and wind on winches.
- Superior Abrasion & Cut Resistance: The UHMWPE fibers possess exceptional resistance to wear, abrasion, and cutting from sharp edges.
- Critical Low Elongation & High Energy Absorption: Exhibits extremely low elongation (typically less than 3.5%) under load.
- Built for the Harsh Marine Environment: UHMWPE is inherently resistant to UV radiation, saltwater, chemicals, and rot.
Primary Applications on Offshore Drilling Platforms:
- Platform Mooring Lines: Permanent and temporary mooring systems for semi-submersibles, drill ships, and jack-up rigs.
- Critical Lifting Operations: Heavy-lift crane ropes, winch lines, and cargo handling where precision and safety are paramount.
- Towing & Supply Operations: As a high-performance towing hawser for platform supply vessels (PSVs) and tugboats.
- Fall Arrest & Safety Systems: For personnel safety lines and fall protection due to its high strength and light weight.
- Back-up & Emergency Systems: Serving as a reliable, corrosion-free alternative to steel in vital backup systems.
