Plain Mixed NIKA-Steel® 12-24 Strand Rope
Single Braided 12/24-strand ropes are constructed by mixed twisting NIKA-STEEL® and Polyester yarns in the outer layer of the strand (MIXED NIKA-STEEL®).
Their layout is fit for applications requiring abrasion resistance properties.
They have excellent resistance to abrasion (Polyester cover yarns) wet/dry, sunlight (as Polypropylene yarns are more than adequately protected by the external Polyester yarns) & chemicals, good resistance to cyclic loading and maintain the same performance wet/dry.
They are user friendly, rotation resistant and easy to splice. Polyester fibers possess the best endurance among all the high tenacity fibers.
Specific gravity: 0.98 (Floating)
Melting point: 165 °C (NIKA-STEEL®) / 265°C (PES)
Elongation at breaking: 15%-18%
Chemical resistance to ALKALI: VERY GOOD
Chemical resistance to ORGANIC SOLVENT: VERY GOOD
Chemical resistance to ACID: EXCELLENT. Strength loss in NaOH and H2SO4 in high concentration and temperature
