  • Easy to splice and inspect
  • High abrasion and UV resistance
  • High elasticity retention over nylon
  • Increased strength and durability over standard Akwaflex
  • Round profile for enhanced abrasion resistance and strength
  • Ideal for high strength applications such as stretchers or towlines
