UHMWPE(Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene Ropes) float in water making them significantly safer, their low stretch properties provide greater sensitivity and their low elongation combined with their low weight makes their handling easy and the manoeuvring of vessels extremely accurate especially in distress & critical times. Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) ropes are 7-9 times stronger than steel (by weight) and 3 times stronger than Polyester of equal weight.
