Flame Resistant ARAMID ROPE
Structure:8/12 Strand
It's best rope for extreme high temperature working condition,heat and flex fatigue resistant,perform very well through pulleys and winches.
Kevlar is wettable and can absorb water. For this reason it is often covered in a waterproof coating.
- High Toughness (Work-To-Break)
- High Tensile Strength at Low Weight, specific gravity: 1.44. Lower compression strength.
- Low Elongation to Break, High Modulus (Structural Rigidity) Elongation at break is 1.5-4.5
- High Cut Resistance
- Low Electrical Conductivity. This avoids electromagnetic interference cause by steel wires. Because kevlar wets readily it can conduct electricity when wet.
- Low Thermal Shrinkage
- Flame Resistant, Self-Extinguishing Critical Temperature 400.F
- High Chemical Resistance, but is sensitive to chlorine
- Excellent Dimensional Stability
- Relatively poor compression strength.
- Can absorb water
- Sensitive to shock loads and can fail unexpectedly after
- Kevlar is sensitive to UV degradation
