Akwaflex 8S Ropes are manufactured from a blend of high tenacity monofilament fibres which produce a non-torque high tenacity rope with greater strength and abrasion resistance than polypropylene.
Akwaflex 8S Ropes also offer improved ultraviolet resistance compared to standard polypropylene and will maintain flexibility and strength even when wet. Akwaflex maintains buoyancy and offers the perfect balance between flexibility, durability, and strength.
Akwaflex 8S ropes accommodate a wide range of marine applications.
