Performance Characteristics
- Strength: Breaking strength approximately 25-35 tons (varies by manufacturer)
- Lightweight: Floats on water, easier to handle than nylon/polyester of same strength
- Low Stretch: Minimal elongation (typically 3-4%) - ideal for towing applications
- Chemical Resistance: Resistant to most marine chemicals, oils, and fuels
Typical Applications
- Commercial vessel mooring lines
- Tugboat towing hawsers
- Yacht and ship tender lines
- Aquaculture and offshore operations
- High-performance sailing applications
Usage Considerations
- Splicing: Requires specialized techniques (often factory spliced)
- Heat Sensitivity: Melts at lower temperatures than nylon - friction can cause damage
- Knot Holding: Slippery surface - knots may need to be backed up
- Cost: Premium pricing compared to polyester or nylon ropes
Note: For critical applications like mooring or towing, always verify the manufacturer's exact specifications including minimum breaking strength, working load limit, and recommended usage guidelines. DNV Certificate included.
