The Dyneema Hollow Braid - Brailight Ultimate SK78 - Hot Pre-Stretched is a high-performance rope designed for various marine applications. Crafted from 100% Dyneema® SK78 fibers, this 12-strand hollow braid rope offers exceptional strength-to-weight ratio and durability.
- Lightweight and Strong: Approximately eight times lighter than steel for equivalent strength, facilitating easier handling and reduced load on equipment.
- Water Resistant: The rope's construction ensures buoyancy and resistance to water absorption, making it suitable for marine environments.
- High Durability: The Geothane (polyurethane) coating enhances abrasion and UV resistance, extending the rope's lifespan.
- Low Elongation: Maximum elongation of 1.4% at 50% of the breaking load, ensuring minimal stretch under load.
- Easy Splicing: The hollow braid design allows for straightforward splicing, enabling customization and repair.
Technical Specifications:
- Construction: 12-strand hollow braid made from 100% Dyneema® SK78 fibers.
- Coating: Geothane (polyurethane) coating for enhanced abrasion and UV resistance.
- Elongation: Maximum of 1.4% at 50% of the breaking load.
- Buoyancy: Floats on water, suitable for marine applications.
- Durability: High resistance to abrasion and UV degradation due to the Geothane coating.
Materials:
- Core: 100% Dyneema® SK78 fibers, known for their high modulus and strength.
- Coating: Geothane (polyurethane) for improved abrasion and UV resistance.
Dimensions:
- Diameter: Available in various diameters; specific sizes should be confirmed with the manufacturer or authorized retailers.
- Length: Custom lengths may be available; please consult the manufacturer or authorized retailers for options.
Compatibility Information:
Ideal for applications such as load recovery, strops, spinnaker poles, and other marine rigging needs. The rope's buoyancy and low elongation make it suitable for use in various marine environments.
Additional Details:
- Stiffness: Due to the Geothane coating, the rope may appear stiff upon initial receipt. This stiffness will diminish with use.
- Handling: While the rope is designed for ease of splicing, care should be taken during handling to prevent damage to the coating.
