New England Ropes HSR-75 Heat Set Dyneema Single Braid Rope
$2.31 - $11.08
New England Ropes HSR-75 Heat Set Dyneema Single Braid Rope Item # 876403
Description
Features:
- The rope made of HMPE (high modulus polyethylene) fibers is heat-treated, under tension, at temperatures greater than 100°C / 212°F
- At a microscopic level, this process causes the molecular chains to be oriented such that they are linear, thus ensuring greater load bearing capacity
- The STS (Stronger than Steel) process under exposure to heat increases the rope's breaking strength by achieving a uniform distribution of the HMPE fiber lengths throughout the rope's longitudinal profile
- Up to 28% more breaking strength at equal diameters
- A minimum of 90% less constructional elongation
- Higher breaking strength at same diameter
- Same breaking strength at smaller diameter and less weight
- Low constructional elongation
- Longer service life due to closed rope structure, even without cover
- Stable rope cross-section
- uniform fiber lengths in the rope's longitudinal profile
- Molecular chains are oriented in the direction of the force
- Improved degree of utilization of the fibers contained in the rope
- Higher breaking strength
- Stable rope cross-section
- Closed rope structure
Applications:
- Steering cables
- Backstays
- Other applications that need high strength, low stretch and greater durability than Vectran
