High performance fibre, low stretch rope constructed with Vectran TM fibre core and outer sheath of polyester for protection.
Vectran ropes have a similar load/extension performance to those made with Aramid, but display even lower stretch.
Vectran ropes will have a similar weight to Aramid, enabling it to be used in critical point loading applications without installing oversized sheaves.

The abrasion resistance is 10-12 times better than that of Aramid, reducing internal rope damage. A unique property of Vectran it its resistance to creep. It doesn’t! At loads up to 50% of break (far in excess of normal working loads), Vectran displays no creep, even at high temperatures.
This is a feature that no rope making material can match including steel.
