Polylon

Designed for Unparalleled Strength & Durability

Polylon is a double braided rope constructed with a 100% polyester cover and a 100% nylon core. This rope was specifically designed for electric utilities but has a number of industrial and marine applications. The construction provides extremely high strength, very high energy absorption, and very good dielectric properties. A single blue/gold tracer in the cover identifies Polylon. Diameters over 1 inch will be solid white with no blue and gold tracers. Urethane coatings are available to maximize abrasion resistance and minimize water absorption.

Features:

  • Specific Gravity of 1.24
  • High Energy Absorption
  • Extremely High Strength
  • Good Dielectric Properties
  • Urethane Coated Cover Available

Suggested Uses:

  • Rigging Lines
  • Pulling Lines
  • Lift Lines
