Fiber structures

Monofilaments

The yarns consist of one single element of a relatively large diameter and are braided into a rope.

Characteristics:

• Very good abrasion resistance

• Low dirt take-up

• tiff structure

Textured fibers

A certain degree of disorder is caused in a formerly straight bundle of synthetic fibers to generate characteristics which are usually seen only on natural fibers.

Characteristics:

• Good grip

• High elasticity

• Traditional look and feel

Multifilaments

A bundle of thin fibers processed into twines which then are braided into a rope. The majority of fiber ropes follow this basic design.

Characteristics:

• High flexibility

• High tensile strength

Staple fiber

This type of material consists of spun pieces of short filaments instead of a bundle of long ones.

Characteristics:

• Excellent grip

• Soft handling
