The polypropylene rope from Seilwerk STANKE has been extensively tested to assess its performance in various areas. The rope’s weather resistance was confirmed, as it can withstand rain, sun and frost. In terms of load-bearing capacity, the rope demonstrated a very high load-bearing capacity, which varies depending on the diameter and, with 12 diameters to choose from, offers a wide range of possible applications. The chemical resistance of the rope is impressive, as it is resistant to a wide range of chemicals such as alkalis, acids, petrol, bases and organic solvents. In addition, the rope has very good abrasion resistance, which emphasises its durability and reliability with frequent use. The elongation of the rope is 10-15%, which demonstrates its elasticity and flexibility under load. This comprehensive assessment shows that Seilwerk STANKE’s polypropylene rope offers excellent performance in terms of weather resistance, load-bearing capacity, chemical resistance, abrasion resistance and elongation, making it a reliable choice for various applications.
