Larger HMPE Brait
Plaited 8-Strand
Larger plaited High Modulus Polyethylene (HMPE) Brait. HMPE fiber is one of the strongest fibers known and is very low elongating. The geometry of the plaited HMPE allows more substantial dynamic loads to be imparted on the rope without compromising its longevity.
