Texteel 12x12 is a 12-strand braided rope in which each of the 12 strands is, in turn, a 12-strand rope, or braided primary strand. Texteel is manufactured from High Modulus Polyethylene (HMPE) and is designed to meet the need for high load applications where exceptionally low weight and flexibility are required in a cost driven environment.

 

Texteel has a specially formulated coating system to maintain flexibility for ease of handling and inspections, whilst not compromising on strength or durability.

Texteel is resistant to kinking, maintains strength around tight bend radius and has low recoil making it safer than traditional steel rigging products.

 

The 12x12 construction optimises the ropes durability for demanding applications such as tug and barge towing and mooring lines. This design has long lay lengths, making the rope more flexible for bending applications, easy for inspection and handing, and can be quickly spliced using standard 12 strand splicing techniques.

 

Texteel has the added benefit of being a Meg4 compliant product and can be produced with class certification upon request
