Crane Ropes
Delivering superior performance in load capacity, safety, and durability
Why choose Dyneema®?
With loads getting heavier and deadlines tighter, today’s crane operators are constantly facing the challenge of how to increase their productivity.
Traditional steel ropes are extremely heavy in large quantities, which reduces the maximum lifting capacity for any crane. Ropes with Dyneema® are incredibly lightweight – 80% lighter than steel wire rope at the same strength – which give cranes the potential to handle higher payloads. Ropes with Dyneema® have a longer service life so fewer rope changes are needed. Furthermore ropes with Dyneema® show no stretch during lifting, are torque free, and require no lubrication or produce ‘fishhooks’ like steel wire rope.
3 reasons to choose Dyneema®
Lightweight
80% lighter than steel wire means increased crane capacity and less downtime
Longer Service Life
It reduces the number of rope changes, thus improves crane availability
Safety
Ropes made with Dyneema® do not create ‘fishhooks’, meaning safer handling and reeving
How does DM20 improve cleanroom productivity and reduce contamination losses?
Traditional indoor hoists with steel chains or from steel wire introduce steel particles and oil pollutions. However, a hoist rope with Dyneema® DM20 fiber is easy and safe to handle due to its soft touch, flexibility and lightweight to increase productivity and improve load handling.
