Description
Product Overview:
Thanawala Nylon Double Braid Rope is a high-performance, marine-grade rope engineered for the rigorous demands of marine and offshore applications. Manufactured by Thanawala & Co., a trusted name in the rope industry since the 1980s, this rope combines superior strength, durability, and flexibility, making it ideal for anchor lines, mooring, towing, lifting, and other critical maritime operations.
Construction & Material:
This rope features a meticulously crafted double-braided design with a braided nylon core enveloped by a robust 16/24-strand double-braided nylon sheath. The construction enhances abrasion resistance while maintaining excellent flexibility and ease of handling.
Key Features:
-
Exceptional Strength: Engineered to deliver high tensile strength with breaking loads ranging from approximately 900 kg (1/4″ diameter) to over 21,000 kg (1-1/4″ diameter), ensuring reliable performance under heavy loads and harsh marine conditions.
-
Low Stretch: The nylon fibers provide controlled elongation, crucial for shock absorption during dynamic loading, reducing stress on vessels and mooring systems.
-
UV and Chemical Resistance: The nylon sheath offers superior resistance to ultraviolet rays, saltwater, oils, and most chemicals commonly encountered in marine environments, significantly extending rope lifespan.
-
Abrasion Resistance: The double braid cover protects against wear and tear from friction against dock surfaces, winches, and hardware.
-
Lightweight & Flexible: Compared to wire ropes, Thanawala Nylon Double Braid is lighter and easier to handle, improving crew safety and operational efficiency.
