Webbing made of UHMWPE is very light, weighing just 2.4 grams per foot. It’s corrosion and impact-resistant, making it a durable strap with a breaking strength of 1700 pounds. It’s also anti-aging and works well in cold climates.
UHMWPE (ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene) webbing is some of the strongest webbing woven. Compared with other PE fiber, UHMWPE fiber for Rope/Net will endow the finished products with a higher availability of tenacity, higher abrasion resistance for both wet and dry aspects.
Compared with other synthetic fibers, including nylon, polyester, and aramid fiber, UHMWPE fiber has the highest strength-weight ratio. Its strength is 10 times that of the same weight of steel. When the rope made of UHMWPE fiber falls into the water, it will float on the water and easy to be found because its density is smaller than water; as a result, the rope can be picked up before sinking or intertwining together.
Besides original white UHMWPE fiber, can also offer pre-dyed ones with various colors, including but not limited to Black, Blue, Orange, Green, Yellow etc. And could also customize colored UHMWPE fiber based on the requirements and applications of customers. It offers maximum strength combined with a minimum weight. It does not smell and it is not toxic.
