The strength and stiffness of VECTRAN™ fibers satisfy market demands for smaller and lighter ropes and cords. Its low moisture absorption reduces blistering during the extrusion of coatings, creating more efficient and longer-lasting ropes and cordage. Whether the application is a static or cyclic load, product durability is enhanced by excellent resistance to both creep and flex fatigue.
Key Benefits
- High tensile properties
- Low moisture absorption
- Minimal creep
- Abrasion resistance
- Flex resistance
