MARINE MOORING ROPES CLASSIFICATION

MARINE MOORING ROPES CLASSIFICATION

The materials of marine mooring ropes mainly include polypropylene, polyester, nylon, high molecular weight polyethylene, fiber umbilical cord, etc.

1. Polypropylene material is relatively widely used in China and is a common type of marine rope.

2. Polyester material has higher strength than polypropylene material and is very smooth, which can effectively prevent wear and tear. The disadvantage is that it is heavy and not easy to operate.

3. Nylon material has the advantages of polyester material, and its strength is higher than polypropylene material, while polyester material is more expensive than others.

4. High molecular weight polyethylene belongs to high-end materials and is a fiber with high breaking strength and excellent comprehensive performance in the world. It was previously used in defense research fields, such as bulletproof vests. Due to its super strong tensile strength, it is widely used in the marine cable industry. It can replace steel wire rope.

5. Fiber umbilical cord is a key link connecting underwater instrument equipment and surface measurement and control ships. Non metallic materials are used to strengthen the umbilical cable, greatly reducing its volume and weight, improving the movement ability, reaction speed, and maneuverability of underwater equipment. It has the characteristics of small outer diameter, light weight, good anti-interference, and still maintains good performance after repeated bending and stretching.

6. The multifunctional four claw rope can provide temporary or permanent rings, grips, and knots for cables and ropes, making it convenient for the use, fixation, recycling, and transportation of cables and ropes. The installation is fast and simple, without the need for tools. Suitable for electric power construction, marine exploration, ship transportation, various industries, etc.

7. High strength mooring ropes are made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibers, which have excellent UV resistance and antioxidant properties. The breaking strength of ropes with the same diameter is more than 20 times that of steel wire ropes, polyamide ropes, and polyester ropes, and more than 30 times that of polypropylene ropes. Special post-processing technology further enhances corrosion resistance and wear resistance. It can be widely used in many fields such as naval vessels, aerospace, national defense equipment, ocean going vessels, ship cables, oil platforms, etc. This type of mooring rope with very limited source.
