NIKA-Polyester 3-4 Strand Rope
NIKA-Polyester 3 & 4-strand ropes are 100% Polyester ropes fit for applications requiring abrasion resistance, moderate elasticity and shock absorption properties.
They have excellent resistance to abrasion, sunlight, chemicals and cyclic loading wet/dry.
Polyester fibers possess the best endurance among all the high tenacity fibers.
APPLICATIONS: MOORING - ANCHORING - MESSENGER LINES
They are produced according to international standards such as DIN EN ISO 1141 etc. They are user friendly, flexible, rotation resistant and easy to splice.
