Aracom Miniline
This product combines a low helix angle core of Technora Aramid with a very tightly woven over braid of thin polyester. Aracom Miniline provides the maximum strength–to-weight ratio in a composite Aramid polyester construction. Miniline can also be ordered with our fuzz fairing. This fairing is highly effective at eliminating strum and reducing drag, whether hydrodynamic or aero-dynamic. Yale's faired ropes can be wound on a reel without damaging the fairing or rope.

* Knots and abrupt bends significantly reduce the strength of all ropes and lowers maximum working load.
** Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in load up or down, in excess of 10% of the rope's rated working load constitutes hazardous shock load and would void normal working load recommendation. Consult Yale Cordage for guidelines for working loads and safe use of rope.
