Double Esterlon \ Polyester Double Braided Rope
Available withMaxijacket coating
Data
Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in load, up or down, in excess of 10% of line’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. Double Esterlon is made to Yale Cordage Specification #YCI-DE-022
Double Esterlon is a double-braided rope constructed of unique, hightenacity, cordage-finish polyester. Yale’s exceptionally high strengths come from selecting this yarn (minimum 9.2 gpd), careful attention to machine setup, and the extraordinary lubricity of the yarn. It offers low stretch, high strength, and excellent wear life and dielectric strength. Double Esterlon is identified by two adjacent green strands braided into the cover structure. The date of manufacture is denoted by colored yarn between the core and the sleeve.
Specific Gravity: 1.38
Dielectric Strength
The maximum allowable leakage for new dry Double Esterlon is 1.0 milliamperes at 60 K
DC volts when tested in accordance with Yale Cordage Test Method DTP-185. Caution: Absorbed and entrained moisture or impurities
will increase a rope’s conductivity dramatically.

Elastic Elongation
The colored area under the curve represents the rope’s energy-absorption capability.
- Green working 544 ft. lbs./lb.
