UHMWPE TOW ROPE
High strength Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene fiber which is stronger than the wire rope of same diameter,and it weights 1/8 of the wire rope,delivered as a plain rope or in combination with jacket.
This 12 strands UHMWPE ROPE constantly work on developing new solutions to improve the beneficial characteristics in the main tow rope.
12-strand braided rope with maximum strength-to-weight ratio and size-for-size has the same strength as steel, wire rope replacement with extremely low stretch, superior flex fatigue and wear resistance.
