NYLON-AND POLYESTER ROPES

POLYESTER AND NYLON ROPES ARE THE STRONGEST AMONG SYNTHETIC ROPES. DUE TO THE EXCELLENT CHARACTERISTICS THESE ROPES ARE USED UNDER HEAVY CIRCUMSTANCES (SUCH AS MOORING TAILS). THE CONSTRUCTION IS ALWAYS IN MULTIFILAMENT FIBRE WHAT MAKES THEM FEEL SOFT. THE BASIC COLOUR IS WHITE, BOTH ROPES ARE ROTPROOFED AND HAVE A VERY GOOD ABRASION RESISTANCE.

VERY GOOD ABRASION RESISTANCE

GOOD WEIGTH/BREAKING STRENGTH RATIO

OTHER PUT UP AND CONSTRUCTION ON REQUEST

PROPERTIES

NYLON:

RELATIVE DENSITY	1.14
TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE	CAN BE USED BELOW 0°C MELTING POINT 250°C
UV RESISTANCE	GOOD - COMPLETELY STABILISED
ELONGATION	BREAKING STRETCH OF ABOUT 43%. BECAUSE OF THE HIGH STRETCH, THE ROPE STORES A LOT OF ENERGY - SECURITY OF PEOPLE MUST BE GUARDED
FLEXIBILITY	BECOMES HARDER IN USE
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE	GOOD AGAINST ALCALIS - LESS AGAINST ACIDS

POLYESTER:

RELATIVE DENSITY	1.38
TEMPERATURE RESISTANCE	FLEXIBLE TO -40°C MELTING POINT 260°C
UV RESISTANCE	GOOD - COMPLETELY STABILISED
ELONGATION	BREAKING STRETCH OF ABOUT 19%. WET OR DRY
FLEXIBILITY	REMAINS FLEXIBLE - DOESN'T ABSORB WATER
CHEMICAL RESISTANCE	GOOD EXCEPT AGAINST ALCALIS
