Stretch
Characteristics (Aracom T®)
Aramid Ropes
Yale produces a wide variety of products based on Aramid Fiber. Pound
for pound, this high strength synthetic fiber has more strength than steel,
with the lowest stretch possible in synthetic fiber. The following products
illustrate Yales capabilities in Aramid lines. We have included a strength
to weight ratio index number to aid you in evaluating the various products.
In general, the higher the index number, the more Aramid the product contains.
Abrasion Protection
Internal All of Yales Kevlar ropes are treated with molten high pressure
Aralube prior to entering our twisting equipment. Lab and field experience
has shown that this added internal permanent lubrication (non-soluble) treatment
leads to an extended wear life (as much as four times). It also minimizes filament
breakage while maximizing yarn tension control as the fiber is processed into
rope. External Maxijacket is a spliceable urethane solution that
is coated onto the finished rope. It increases abrasion life, firms the line,
provides color identification, and helps keep foreign matter out of the rope. |
