PE-12

Single Braid

Using the same high-tenacity fiber we use in our value-packed Portland Braid, this polyester single braid offers a single-end-per-carrier construction, which keeps the rope from flattening out in service and self-centers in sheaves beautifully.

PE-12

Using the same high-tenacity fiber we use in our value-packed Portland Braid, this polyester single braid offers a single-end-per-carrier construction, which keeps the rope from flattening out in service and self-centers in sheaves beautifully.

  • Single-end-per carrier
  • Easy to splice and field repairs are easy to accomplish
  • High twist and braid angles improve wear resistance
  • Available in unlimited lengths and brilliant colors for easy identification.

PE-12 comes with the same tough grades of Maxijacket urethane we use on our more expensive products. PE-12 is torque free and is undamaged when rigging with swivels.

* Knots and abrupt bends significantly reduce the strength of all ropes and lower the maximum working load. ** Working load is based on static or moderately dynamic lifting/pulling operations. Instantaneous changes in load, up or down, in excess of 10% of the rope’s rated working load constitute hazardous shock load and would void the normal working-load recommendation. Consult Yale Cordage for guidelines for working loads and the safe use of rope.

Dielectric Strength

The maximum allowable leakage for clean, dry PE-12 is 100 micro-amperes when tested at 100kV per Yale Method 712-1701 Rev 1 “Routine Production Test.” Absorbed and entrained moisture or impurities will increase rope’s conductivity dramatically.
