Ropes for mooring ropes | Polyamide 3 Strands

Description

Polyamide 3 strand polymerized mooring rope

Ropes ideal for use as mooring lines.

Compared with polyester, polyamide has a much higher elongation at break (15-20%). Its high elasticity makes it particularly suitable for mooring applications, as the fibers protect cleats by absorbing jolts.

Features :

• Good abrasion and UV resistance.
• Polymerization stabilizes strands, makes Ropes more flexible and facilitates splicing.
• Good elasticity
• Economical
• Easy to splice

If you want to show off to your friends, use the word “polyamide” to refer to this plastic material that’s a big hit in textiles. If you’ve flopped because your friends already knew that polyamide is better known under the trade name Nylon ®, make up for it by pointing out that the word corresponds to the abbreviations for New York and Londonthe two factories of the American company Du Pont de Nemours, which discovered the fiber in the mid-1930s.
