Beaver 3 strand polyethylene rope, 10mm x 250m

The Beaver silver staple rope is a three strand polyethylene tie-down rope for transport. It is medium strength and durability with a medium to soft lay for easy handling. Fibrillated film produces hairs that protrude from the rope, giving it knotting and anti-abrasion properties. The rope is made to AS 4142.2.

Silver rope is resistant to oil, petrol, acid, rot, mildew, sunlight and weathering, which makes it suitable for external use, and it floats and can be stored wet. MBF is the lowest force at which a new rope of that size is expected to break, so it is not a safe working load. On synthetic rope say it breaks without warning, and that knots can fuse together when put under load, so friction between synthetic ropes should be avoided. Do not use this rope to lift or suspend loads.

Key specifications

Supplied with

• Synthetic rope breaks without warning, even though its breaking strength stays constant when wet
• Avoid friction or synthetic ropes binding against each other, as knots can fuse together when put under load
• Rope ends can be heat sealed to prevent the strands unlaying
• Polyethylene rope floats on water (specific gravity 0.93) and its tensile strength remains the same dry or wet
• The ultraviolet resistance of polyethylene rope is fair. It as low in strength compared with other synthetic fibre rope

Choose the diameter from the minimum breaking force you need, allowing a margin that suits your load restraint plan. Beaver supplies this rope in full coils only, so each variant is a 250 m coil.
