Description
HOPEX PRO™ – UHMWPE Core & UHMWPE Jacket
HOPEX PRO™ combines a 12-strand UHMWPE load-bearing core with a braided UHMWPE jacket. Because both core and jacket are UHMWPE, the rope delivers extremely high strength with very low stretch. Weight for weight, it is about 7 times stronger than steel rope and 3 times stronger than polyester, and it floats. WHR supplies this HMPE winch rope in Dubai and across the UAE.
The braided jacket gives superior resistance to UV and chemicals, more wear resistance, excellent gripping properties and a torque-free construction. HOPEX PRO absorbs no water, keeps 100% of its strength when wet and has elongation at break of under 4%. It is used for mooring, towing and winch lines, lifting slings, messenger lines, oceanographic cables, fish farming, wind farm lines and offshore applications.
