• Strength members in cables
• Steel replacement
Overview
FIBER-LINE® develops, produces, and markets a full line of high
performance strength members.
High Strength Synthetic Fibers Outperform Steel
Our Products add
• Strength
On an equivalent weight basis, fibers like Aramid, LCP, and PBO are
5-10 times stronger than steel.
• Chemical Resistance
High performance fibers resist soiling and the absorption of water,
solvents, and other chemicals.
• Abrasion Resistance
HMPE as a jacketing material, is a great example of the excellent
abrasion resistance of high performance fibers.
• Fatigue Resistance
Aramid Fibers have exceptional bending and tensile fatigue
resistance.
• Safer Handling
Because synthetic fibers are flexible and weigh less than steel, they
are easier to work with, lead to fewer weight-related injuries and
completely eliminates fish hooks.
• Dampening
Synthetic fiber cables have excellent shock absorption and load
dampening properties.
We believe that our ongoing
commitment to protect the environment, to remain at
the forefront of fiber and coating technology, and to
‘treat others as we want to be treated’ will continue to
drive the success of our customers, shareholders, and
employees.
