PE-12
Single Braid
Using the same high-tenacity fiber we use in our value-packed Portland Braid, this polyester single braid offers a single-end-per-carrier construction, which keeps the rope from flattening out in service and self-centers in sheaves beautifully.

- Single-end-per carrier
- Easy to splice and field repairs are easy to accomplish
- High twist and braid angles improve wear resistance
- Available in unlimited lengths and brilliant colors for easy identification.
PE-12 comes with the same tough grades of Maxijacket urethane we use on our more expensive products. PE-12 is torque free and is undamaged when rigging with swivels.

Dielectric Strength
The maximum allowable leakage for clean, dry PE-12 is 100 micro-amperes when tested at 100kV per Yale Method 712-1701 Rev 1 “Routine Production Test.” Absorbed and entrained moisture or impurities will increase rope’s conductivity dramatically.
