Maxibraid™ |
|
Maxibraid is a single-braid rope constructed of UHMPE® fiber. This fiber has the highest strength to weight ratio of any synthetic or natural fiber, and it floats. |
|
Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic pulling/lifting operations. Instantaneous changes in load, up or down, in excess of 10% of the lines rated working load constitutes hazardous shock load and would void normal working load recommendation. |
